We introduce the fundamental group F(A) of a simple $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra $A$ with unique (up to scalar multiple) densely defined lower semicontinuous trace. This is a generalization of our previous works. Our definition in this…
We develop a theory of type semigroups for arbitrary twisted, not necessarily Hausdorff \'etale groupoids. The type semigroup is a dynamical version of the Cuntz semigroup. We relate it to traces, ideals, pure infiniteness, and stable…
We prove a sandwiching lemma for inner-exact locally compact Hausdorff \'etale groupoids. Our lemma says that every ideal of the reduced $C^*$-algebra of such a groupoid is sandwiched between the ideals associated to two uniquely defined…
We present a stable uniqueness theorem for non-unital C*-algebras. Generalized tracial rank one is defined for stably projectionless simple C*-algebras. Let $A$ and $B$ be two stably projectionless separable simple amenable C*-algebras with…
A C*-algebra $A$ is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to $A \otimes K(\ell_2)$. Hjelmborg and R\o rdam have shown that countable inductive limits of separable stable C*-algebras are stable. We show that this is no longer true in the…
We propose the notion of countable decomposability of maps on C*-algebras: a bounded linear map $\varphi : \mathscr{A}\to B(\mathcal{H})$, where $\mathscr{A}$ is a C*-algebra and $\mathcal{H}$ a Hilbert space, will be called countably…
Let $1 \in A \subset B$ be an inclusion of C*-algebras of C*-index-finite type with depth 2. We try to compute topological stable rank of $B$ ($= \tsr(B)$) when $A$ has topological stable rank one. We show that $\tsr(B) \leq 2$ when $A$ is…
We define what it means for a proper continuous morphism between groupoids to be Haar system preserving, and show that such a morphism induces (via pullback) a *-morphism between the corresponding convolution algebras. We proceed to provide…
We initiate the study of C*-algebras and groupoids arising from left regular representations of Garside categories, a notion which originated from the study of Braid groups. Every higher rank graph is a Garside category in a natural way. We…
Given a (not necessarily discrete) proper metric space $M$ with bounded geometry, we define a groupoid $G(M)$. We show that the coarse Baum--Connes conjecture with coefficients, which states that the assembly map with coefficients for G(M)…
We introduce the fundamental group ${\mathcal F}(A)$ of a unital simple $C^*$-algebra $A$ with a unique normalized trace. We compute fundamental groups ${\mathcal F}(A)$ of several nuclear or non-nuclear $C^*$-algebras $A$. K-theoretical…
A characterization is given for directed graphs that yield graph $C^*$-algebras with continuous trace. This is established for row-finite graphs with no sources first using a groupoid approach, and extended to the general case via the…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be a locally compact Hausdorff \'{e}tale groupoid. We call a tracial state $\tau$ on a general groupoid $C^*$-algebra $C_\nu^*(\mathcal{G})$ canonical if $\tau=\tau|_{C_0(\mathcal{G}^{(0)})} \circ E$, where…
In this paper we generalize the notion of a $k$-graph into (countable) infinite rank. We then define our $C^*$-algebra in a similar way as in $k$-graph $C^*$-algebras. With this construction we are able to find analogues to the Gauge…
The simplest case of a manifold with singularities is a manifold M with boundary, together with an identification of the boundary with a product M1 x P, where P is a fixed manifold. The associated singular space is obtained by collapsing P…
Categories of paths are a generalization of several kinds of oriented discrete data that have been used to construct $C^*$-algebras. The techniques introduced to study these constructions apply almost verbatim to the more general situation…
Let $X$ be a locally compact non compact Hausdorff topological space. Consider the algebras $C(X)$, $C_b(X)$, $C_0(X)$, and $C_{00}(X)$ of respectively arbitrary, bounded, vanishing at infinity, and compactly supported continuous functions…
We construct countable groups $G$ with the following new degree of W*-superrigidity: if $L(G)$ is virtually isomorphic, in the sense of admitting a bifinite bimodule, with any other group von Neumann algebra $L(\Lambda)$, then the groups…
We study the groupoid C*-algebras associated to the equivalence relation induced by a quotient map on a locally compact Hausdorff space. This C*-algebra is always a Fell algebra, and if the quotient space is Hausdorff, it is a…
It is shown that if $A$ and $B$ are unital separable simple nuclear $\mathcal Z$-stable C$^*$-algebras and there is a unital embedding $A \rightarrow B$ which is invertible on $KK$-theory and traces, then $A \cong B$. In particular, two…
