We consider Fell bundles over discrete groups, and the C*-algebra which is universal for representations of the bundle. We define deformations of Fell bundles, which are new Fell bundles with the same underlying Banach bundle but with the…

We examine the question of quasidiagonality for C*-algebras of discrete amenable groups from a variety of angles. We give a quantitative version of Rosenberg's theorem via paradoxical decompositions and a characterization of…

We introduce and analyse the structure of C*-algebras arising from ideals in right tensor C*-precategories, which naturally generalize both relative Cuntz-Pimsner and Doplicher-Roberts algebras. We establish an explicit intrinsic…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. It is not always the case that its reduced C*-algebra $C^*_r(G)$ admits a tracial state. We exhibit closely related necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of such. We gain a complete answer…

We introduce the notion of fibred action of a group bundle on a C(X)-algebra. By using such a notion, a characterization in terms of induced C*-bundles is given for C*-dynamical systems such that the relative commutant of the fixed-point…

We prove that a discrete group $G$ is amenable iff it is strongly unitarizable in the following sense: every unitarizable representation $\pi$ on $G$ can be unitarized by an invertible chosen in the von Neumann algebra generated by the…

We generalise the theory of Cuntz-Krieger families and graph algebras to the class of finitely aligned $k$-graphs. This class contains in particular all row-finite $k$-graphs. The Cuntz-Krieger relations for non-row-finite $k$-graphs look…

Johnson's characterization of amenable groups states that a discrete group $\Gamma$ is amenable if and only if $H_b^{n \geq 1}(\Gamma; V) = 0$ for all dual normed $\mathbb{R}[\Gamma]$-modules V. In this paper, we extend the previous result…

Given a C*-dynamical system (A,G,\alpha), we discuss conditions under which subalgebras of the multiplier algebra M(A) consisting of fixed points for \alpha are Morita-Rieffel equivalent to ideals in the crossed product of A by G. In case G…

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…

Finiteness conditions for $C^*$-algebras like AF-embeddability, quasidiagonality, stable finiteness have been studied by many authors and shown to be equivalent for certain classes of $C^*$-algebras. For example, Schfhauser proves that…

Let $X$ be a finite dimensional compact metrizable space. We study a technique which employs semiprojectivity as a tool to produce approximations of $C(X)$-algebras by $C(X)$-subalgebras with controlled complexity. The following…

In this article we use semigroupoids to describe a notion of algebraic bundles, mostly motivated by Fell ($C^*$-algebraic) bundles, and the sectional algebras associated to them. As the main motivational example, Steinberg algebras may be…

We use folding techniques to define a new class of gentle-like algebras that generalise the iterated tilted algebras of type $C$ and $\widetilde{C}$, which we call folded gentle algebras. We then show that folded gentle algebras satisfy…

We investigate how the fixed point algebra of a C*-dynamical system can differ from the underlying C*-algebra. For any exact group $\Gamma$ and any infinite group $\Lambda$, we construct an outer action of $\Lambda$ on the Cuntz algebra…

We consider three notions of divisibility in the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra, and show how they reflect properties of the C*-algebra. We develop methods to construct (simple and non-simple) C*-algebras with specific divisibility…

Further to the functional representations of C$^*$-algebras proposed by R. Cirelli, A. Mania and L. Pizzocchero, we consider in this article the uniform K\"ahler bundle (in short, UKB) description of some C$^*$-algebraic subjects. In…

We study conditions that will ensure that a crossed product of a C*-algebra by a discrete exact group is purely infinite (simple or non-simple). We are particularly interested in the case of a discrete non-amenable exact group acting on a…

We show that the group C*-algebra of any elementary amenable group is quasidiagonal. This is an offspring of recent progress in the classification theory of nuclear C*-algebras.

We consider a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $G$ which is graded over a discrete group. Then the fibre over the identity is an open and closed subgroupoid $G_e$. We show that both the full and reduced C*-algebras of this subgroupoid…
