We show that semigroup C*-algebras are groupoid C*-algebras.
We study groupoids and semigroup C*-algebras arising from graphs of monoids, in the setting of right LCM monoids. First, we establish a general criterion when a graph of monoids gives rise to a submonoid of the fundamental group which is…
Certain $*$-semigroups are associated with the universal $C^*$-algebra generated by a partial isometry, which is itself the universal $C^*$-algebra of a $*$-semigroup. A fundamental role for a $*$-structure on a semigroup is emphasized, and…
We introduce $C^*$-algebras associated with directed graphs, along with two generalizations of this concept, namely Exel-Pardo $C^*$-algebras associated with a self-similar action of a group on a directed graph, and the $C^*$-algebras…
Let $\Lambda = \mathbb{Z}^n$ with lexicographic ordering. $\Lambda$ is a totally ordered group. Let $X = \Lambda^+ * \Lambda^+$. Then $X$ is a $\Lambda$-tree. Analogous to the construction of graph $C^*$-algebras, we form a groupoid whose…
In this paper, we discuss a method of constructing separable representations of the $C^*$-algebras associated to strongly connected row-finite $k$-graphs $\Lambda$. We begin by giving an alternative characterization of the…
We provide a framework for studying concrete C*-algebras associated with algebraic actions of semigroups: Given such an action, we construct an inverse semigroup, and we introduce conditions for algebraic actions that characterize…
We define equivariant semiprojectivity for C*-algebras equipped with actions of compact groups. We prove that the following examples are equivariantly semiprojective: arbitrary finite dimensional C*-algebras with arbitrary actions of…
Building on recent work of Robertson and Steger, we associate a C*-algebra to a combinatorial object which may be thought of as a higher rank graph. This C*-algebra is shown to be isomorphic to that of the associated path groupoid.…
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 define a semidirect product groupoid of a system of partially defined local homeomorphisms $T=(T_{1},..., T_{r})$. We prove that this construction gives rise to amenable groupoids. The associated algebra is a Cuntz-like algebra. We use…
We provide inverse semigroup and groupoid models for the Toeplitz and Cuntz-Krieger algebras of finitely aligned higher-rank graphs. Using these models, we prove a uniqueness theorem for the Cuntz-Krieger algebra.
We describe the $C^*$-algebra of an $E$-unitary or strongly 0-$E$-unitary inverse semigroup as the partial crossed product of a commutative $C^*$-algebra by the maximal group image of the inverse semigroup. We give a similar result for the…
We study C*-algebras associated with subsemigroups of groups. For a large class of such semigroups including positive cones in quasi-lattice ordered groups and left Ore semigroups, we describe the corresponding semigroup C*-algebras as…
Many interesting examples of operator algebras, both self-adjoint and non-self-adjoint, can be constructed from directed graphs. In this survey, we overview the construction of $C^*$-algebras from directed graphs and from two…
This dissertation concerns the classification of groupoid and higher-rank graph C*-algebras and has two main components. Firstly, for a groupoid it is shown that the notions of strength of convergence in the orbit space and…
In a recent paper, Pardo and the first named author introduced a class of C*-algebras which which are constructed from an action of a group on a graph. This class was shown to include many C*-algebras of interest, including all Kirchberg…
Graph inverse semigroups generalize the polycyclic inverse monoids and play an important role in the theory of C*-algebras. This paper has two main goals: first, to provide an abstract characterization of graph inverse semigroups; and…
We generalize the Li-Yang notion of self-similar $k$-graph $(G,\Lambda)$ and its $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$ to any finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We then introduce an inverse semigroup model for $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$…
We introduce the notion of continuous orbit equivalence for partial dynamical systems, and give an equivalent characterization in terms of Cartan-isomorphisms for partial C*-crossed products. Both graph C*-algebras and semigroup C*-algebras…
