We obtain a characterization of the real Lie algebras admitting abelian complex structures in terms of certain affine Lie algebras $\frak a \frak f \frak f (A)$, where $A$ is a commutative algebra. These affine Lie algebras are natural…

On the one hand the algebras of linear operators here act on finite-dimensional vector spaces, and on the other hand the point of view is generally an analysts'. Also, one might think of algebras as being used to add more data to basic…

We show that the CAR algebra admits a Cantor spectrum C*-diagonal that is not conjugate to the standard AF diagonal. We obtain this by classification theory of C*-algebras, and the diagonal arises by realising the CAR algebra as the crossed…

To a higher rank directed graph $(\Lambda, d)$, in the sense of Kumjian and Pask, one can associate natural noncommutative analytic Toeplitz algebras, both weakly closed and norm closed. We introduce methods for the classification of these…

Let F be a finite field. We prove that the cohomology algebra with coefficients in F of a right-angled Artin group is a strongly Koszul algebra for every finite graph ${\Gamma}$. Moreover, the same algebra is a universally Koszul algebra…

We give two pathological phenomena for non-separable AF-algebras which do not occur for separable AF-algebras. One is that non-separable AF-algebras are not determined by their Bratteli diagrams, and the other is that there exists a…

The class of finitely presented algebras over a field $K$ with a set of generators $a_{1},..., a_{n}$ and defined by homogeneous relations of the form $a_{1}a_{2}... a_{n} =a_{\sigma (1)} a_{\sigma (2)} ... a_{\sigma (n)}$, where $\sigma$…

For each piecewise monotonic map tau of [0,1], we associate a pair of C*-algebras F_tau and O_tau and calculate their K-groups. The algebra F_tau is an AI-algebra. We characterize when F_tau and O_\tau are simple. In those cases, F_tau has…

We define analytic $R$-groups for affine Hecke algebras, and prove the analog of the Knapp-Stein Dimension Theorem. As a corollary we prove that the commutant algebra of a unitary principal series representation is isomorphic to the complex…

For a given Jacobi-Jordan algebra $A$ and a vector space $V$ over a field $k$, a non-abelian cohomological type object ${\mathcal H}^{2}_{A} \, (V, \, A)$ is constructed: it classifies all Jacobi-Jordan algebras containing $A$ as a…

Higher-rank graphs (or $k$-graphs) were introduced by Kumjian and Pask to provide combinatorial models for the higher-rank Cuntz-Krieger $C^*$-algebras of Robertson and Steger. Here we consider a family of finite 2-graphs whose path spaces…

An ample groupoid is said to be AF if it is a directed union of compact open principal subgroupoids. In this paper, we provide a complete homological characterization of these groupoids. Specifically, we prove that an ample groupoid is AF…

According to J. Feldman and C. Moore's well-known theorem on Cartan subalgebras, a variant of the group measure space construction gives an equivalence of categories between twisted countable standard measured equivalence relations and…

Let $\Gamma=(\mathcal{V},\mathcal{E})$ be a graph, whose vertices $v\in \mathcal{V}$ are colored black and white and labeled with invertible elements $\lambda_v$ from a commutative and associative ring $R$ containing $\pm 1$. Then we…

We begin the study of a new class of operator algebras that arise from higher rank graphs. Every higher rank graph generates a Fock space Hilbert space and creation operators which are partial isometries acting on the space. We call the…

Several relations on graphs, including primitive equivalence, explosion equivalence and strong shift equivalence, are examined and shown to preserve either the graph groupoid, a construction of Kumjian, Pask, Raeburn, and Renault, or the…

k-graphs are higher-rank analogues of directed graphs which were first developed to provide combinatorial models for operator algebras of Cuntz-Krieger type. Here we develop the theory of covering spaces for k-graphs, obtaining a…

It is now well known that a simple graph $C^*$-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a directed graph $E$ is either AF or purely infinite. In this paper, we address the question of whether this is the case for labeled graph $C^*$-algebras recently introduced…

M. Carr and S. Devadoss introduced in [7] the notion of tubing on a finite simple graph $\Gamma$, in the context of configuration spaces on the Hilbert plane. To any finite simple graph $\Gamma$ they associated a finite partially ordered…

We introduce the vertex-arboricity of group-labelled graphs. For an abelian group $\Gamma$, a $\Gamma$-labelled graph is a graph whose edges are labelled by elements of $\Gamma$. For an abelian group $\Gamma$ and $A\subseteq \Gamma$, the…
