Approximation Properties for Crossed Products by Actions and Coactions

Operator Algebras 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We investigate approximation properties for CC^*-algebras and their crossed products by actions and coactions by locally compact groups. We show that Haagerup's approximation constant is preserved for crossed products by arbitrary amenable groups, and we show why this is not always true in the non-amenable case. We also examine similar questions for other forms of the approximation property.
