Groupoid actions on $C^*$-correspondences
Abstract
Let the groupoid with unit space act via a representation on a -correspondence over the -algebra . By the universal property, acts on the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra which becomes a -algebra. The action of commutes with the gauge action on , therefore acts also on the core algebra . We study the crossed product and the fixed point algebra and obtain similar results as in \cite{D}, where was a group. Under certain conditions, we prove that , where is the crossed product -correspondence and that , where is the Doplicher-Roberts algebra defined using intertwiners. The motivation of this paper comes from groupoid actions on graphs. Suppose with compact isotropy acts on a discrete locally finite graph with no sources. Since is strongly Morita equivalent to a commutative -algebra, we prove that the crossed product is stably isomorphic to a graph algebra. We illustrate with some examples.
