We investigate some ergodic and spectral properties of general (discrete) $C^*$-dynamical systems $({\mathfrak A},\Phi)$ made of a unital $C^*$-algebra and a multiplicative, identity-preserving $*$-map $\Phi:{\mathfrak A}\to{\mathfrak A}$,…

In this paper we extend the Pietsch correspondence for ideals of compact operators and traces on them to the semifinite setting. We prove that a shift-monotone space $E(\Z)$ of sequences indexed by $\Z$ defines a Calkin space $E(\cM,\tau)$…

Let $A$ be a separable, unital, simple, $\mathcal{Z}$-stable, nuclear $C^*$-algebra, and let $\alpha\colon G\to \mathrm{Aut}(A)$ be an action of a countable amenable group $G$. If the trace space $T(A)$ is a Bauer simplex and the action of…

In this paper we show that for an almost finite minimal ample groupoid $G$, its reduced $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebra $C_r^*(G)$ has real rank zero and strict comparison even though $C_r^*(G)$ may not be nuclear in general. Moreover, if we further…

Let $T:A\to X$ be a bounded linear operator, where $A$ is a C$^*$-algebra, and $X$ denotes an essential Banach $A$-bimodule. We prove that the following statements are equivalent: $(a)$ $T$ is anti-derivable at zero (i.e. $ab =0$ in $A$…

The covariant Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity is a distance on Lipschitz dynamical systems over quantum compact metric spaces, up to equivariant full quantum isometry. It is built from the dual Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity which, as its…

Given a compact metric space X and a unital AF algebra A equipped with a faithful tracial state, we place quantum metrics on the tensor product of C(X) and A given established quantum metrics on C(X) and A from work with Bice and…

In the high-energy quantum-physics literature one finds statements such as "matrix algebras converge to the sphere". Earlier I provided a general setting for understanding such statements, in which the matrix algebras are viewed as compact…

A complete description is provided for the unitary normalizer of the diagonal Cartan subalgebra $\mathcal{D}_2$ in the $2$-adic ring $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{Q}_2$, which generalizes and unifies analogous results for Cuntz and Bunce-Deddens…

We study a class of Fourier integral operators on compact manifolds with boundary, associated with a natural class of symplectomorphisms, namely, those which preserve the boundary. A calculus of Boutet de Monvel's type can be defined for…

Let A be a closed subalgebra of a C*-algebra, that is a closed algebra of Hilbert space operators. We generalize to such operator algebras $A$ several key theorems and concepts from the theory of classical function algebras. In particular…

A simple Steinberg algebra associated to an ample Hausdorff groupoid $G$ is algebraically purely infinite if and only if the characteristic functions of compact open subsets of the unit space are infinite idempotents. If a simple Steinberg…

The theory of measured quantum groupoids, as defined by Lesieur and myself, was made to generalize the theory of quantum groups made by Kustarmans and Vaes, but was only defined in a von Neumann algebra setting; Th. Timmermann constructed…

Using the recently developed notion of a Herz--Schur multiplier of a C*-dynamical system we introduce weak amenability of C*- and W*-dynamical systems. As a special case we recover Haagerup's characterisation of weak amenability of a…

In this paper we investigate the conditional expectation on the non-commutative $H^{(r,s)}_{p}(\mathcal A;\ell_{\infty})$ and $H_{p}(\mathcal A;\ell_{1})$ spaces associated with semifinite subdiagonal algebra, and prove the contractibility…

A Dirac operator is presented that will yield a 1+ summable regular even spectral triple for all noncommutative compact surfaces defined as subalgebras of the Toeplitz algebra. Connes' conditions for noncommutative spin geometries are…

The aim of this note is to give a simpler proof of a result of Avsec, which states that $q$-Gaussian algebras have the complete metric approximation property.

Given a locally compact group $G$, we study the smallest exact crossed-product functor $(A,G,\alpha)\mapsto A\rtimes_{\mathcal E} G$ on the category of $G$-$C^*$-dynamical systems. As an outcome, we show that the smallest exact…

We consider a quantum channel acting on an infinite dimensional von Neumann algebra of operators on a separable Hilbert space. When there exists an invariant normal faithful state, the cyclic properties of such channels are investigated…

For a continuous field of the Cuntz algebra over a finite CW complex, we introduce a topological invariant, which is an element in Dadarlat-Pennig's generalized cohomology group, and prove that the invariant is trivial if and only if the…
