This book was released on 2009-06-17 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A classification is given of certain separable nuclear C*-algebras not necessarily of real rank zero, namely, the class of simple C*-algebras which are inductive limits of continuous trace C*-algebras whose building blocks have spectrum homeomorphic to the closed interval [0,1]. In particular, a classification of simple stably AI algebras is obtained. Also, the range of the invariant is calculated. We start by approximating the building blocks appearing in a given inductive limit decomposition by certain special building blocks. The special building blocks are continuous trace C*-algebras with finite dimensional irreducible representations and such that the dimension of the representations, as a function on the interval, is a finite (lower semicontinuous) step function. It is then proved that these C*-algebras have finite presentations and stable relations. The advantage of having inductive limits of special subhomogeneous algebras is that we can prove the existence of certain gaps for the induced maps between the affine function spaces. These gaps are necessary to prove the Existence Theorem. Also the Uniqueness theorem is proved for these special building blocks.

Book excerpt: A classification is given of certain separable nuclear C*-algebras not necessarily of real rank zero, namely, the class of simple C*-algebras which are inductive limits of continuous-trace C*-algebras whose building blocks have spectrum homeomorphic to the closed interval [0, 1] or to a finite disjoint union of closed intervals. In particular, a classification of those stably AI algebras which are inductive limits of hereditary sub-C*-algebras of interval algebras is obtained. Also, the range of the invariant is calculated.

This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: to the Encyclopaedia Subseries on Operator Algebras and Non-Commutative Geometry The theory of von Neumann algebras was initiated in a series of papers by Murray and von Neumann in the 1930's and 1940's. A von Neumann algebra is a self-adjoint unital subalgebra M of the algebra of bounded operators of a Hilbert space which is closed in the weak operator topology. According to von Neumann's bicommutant theorem, M is closed in the weak operator topology if and only if it is equal to the commutant of its commutant. Afactor is a von Neumann algebra with trivial centre and the work of Murray and von Neumann contained a reduction of all von Neumann algebras to factors and a classification of factors into types I, II and III. C* -algebras are self-adjoint operator algebras on Hilbert space which are closed in the norm topology. Their study was begun in the work of Gelfand and Naimark who showed that such algebras can be characterized abstractly as involutive Banach algebras, satisfying an algebraic relation connecting the norm and the involution. They also obtained the fundamental result that a commutative unital C* -algebra is isomorphic to the algebra of complex valued continuous functions on a compact space - its spectrum. Since then the subject of operator algebras has evolved into a huge mathematical endeavour interacting with almost every branch of mathematics and several areas of theoretical physics.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, it is shown that the simple unital C*-algebras arising as inductive limits of sequences of finite direct sums of matrix algebras over [italic capital]C([italic capital]X[subscript italic]i), where [italic capital]X[subscript italic]i are arbitrary variable trees, are classified by K-theoretical and tracial data. This result generalizes the result of George Elliott of the case of [italic capital]X[subscript italic]i = [0, 1]. The added generality is useful in the classification of more general inductive limit C*-algebras.

This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is directed towards graduate students that wish to start from the basic theory of C*-algebras and advance to an overview of some of the most spectacular results concerning the structure of nuclear C*-algebras. The text is divided into three parts. First, elementary notions, classical theorems and constructions are developed. Then, essential examples in the theory, such as crossed products and the class of quasidiagonal C*-algebras, are examined, and finally, the Elliott invariant, the Cuntz semigroup, and the Jiang-Su algebra are defined. It is shown how these objects have played a fundamental role in understanding the fine structure of nuclear C*-algebras. To help understanding the theory, plenty of examples, treated in detail, are included. This volume will also be valuable to researchers in the area as a reference guide. It contains an extensive reference list to guide readers that wish to travel further.
Download or read book From the Basic Homotopy Lemma to the Classification of C algebras written by Huaxin Lin and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2017-08-11 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines some recent developments in the theory of -algebras, which are algebras of operators on Hilbert spaces. An elementary introduction to the technical part of the theory is given via a basic homotopy lemma concerning a pair of almost commuting unitaries. The book presents an outline of the background as well as some recent results of the classification of simple amenable -algebras, otherwise known as the Elliott program. This includes some stable uniqueness theorems and a revisiting of Bott maps via stable homotopy. Furthermore, -theory related rotation maps are introduced. The book is based on lecture notes from the CBMS lecture sequence at the University of Wyoming in the summer of 2015.

Download or read book K Theory for Group C Algebras and Semigroup C Algebras written by Joachim Cuntz and published by Birkhäuser. This book was released on 2017-10-24 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives an account of the necessary background for group algebras and crossed products for actions of a group or a semigroup on a space and reports on some very recently developed techniques with applications to particular examples. Much of the material is available here for the first time in book form. The topics discussed are among the most classical and intensely studied C*-algebras. They are important for applications in fields as diverse as the theory of unitary group representations, index theory, the topology of manifolds or ergodic theory of group actions. Part of the most basic structural information for such a C*-algebra is contained in its K-theory. The determination of the K-groups of C*-algebras constructed from group or semigroup actions is a particularly challenging problem. Paul Baum and Alain Connes proposed a formula for the K-theory of the reduced crossed product for a group action that would permit, in principle, its computation. By work of many hands, the formula has by now been verified for very large classes of groups and this work has led to the development of a host of new techniques. An important ingredient is Kasparov's bivariant K-theory. More recently, also the C*-algebras generated by the regular representation of a semigroup as well as the crossed products for actions of semigroups by endomorphisms have been studied in more detail. Intriguing examples of actions of such semigroups come from ergodic theory as well as from algebraic number theory. The computation of the K-theory of the corresponding crossed products needs new techniques. In cases of interest the K-theory of the algebras reflects ergodic theoretic or number theoretic properties of the action.
Download or read book Operators of Class C 0 with Spectra in Multiply Connected Regions written by Adele Zucchi and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the present paper the author studies the analogue of the class [italic capital]C0 within a class of operators having a functional calculus based on the algebra of bounded holomorphic functions in a finitely connected domain with an analytic boundary. The latter class consists of the operators having the closure of the domain as a spectral set and having no normal direct summands with spectra contained in the boundary of the domain. (If the domain is the disk the preceding class reduces to the class of completely nonunitary contractions.) The basic properties known for the case of the disk, including the model theory, are established. The extension, even the mere construction of the functional calculus, is not routine, in part because it is unknown whether the analogue of Sz.-Nagy's dilation theorem is true in the author's multiply connected setting.
Download or read book Lifting Solutions to Perturbing Problems in C algebras written by Terry A. Loring and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The techniques of universal algebra are applied to the category of C*-algebras. An important difference, central to this book, is that one can consider approximate representations of relations and approximately commuting diagrams. Moreover, the highly algebraic approach does not exclude applications to very geometric C*-algebras. K-theory is avoided, but universal properties and stability properties of specific C*-algebras that have applications to K-theory are considered. Index theory arises naturally, and very concretely, as an obstruction to stability for almost commuting matrices. Multiplier algebras are studied in detail, both in the setting of rings and of C*-algebras. Recent results about extensions of C*-algebras are discussed, including a result linking amalgamated products with the Busby/Hochshild theory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the authors establish global Rankin Selberg integrals which determine the standard [italic capital]L function for the group [italic capitals]GL[subscript italic]r x [italic capital]Gʹ, where [italic capital]Gʹ is an isometry group of a nondegenerate symmetric form. The class of automorphic representations considered here is for any pair [capital Greek]Pi1 [otimes/dyadic/Kronecker/tensor product symbol] [capital Greek]Pi2 where [capital Greek]Pi1 is generic cuspidal for [italic capitals]GL[subscript italic]r([italic capital]A) and [capital Greek]Pi2 is cuspidal for [italic capital]Gʹ([italic capital]A). The construction of these [italic capital]L functions involves the use of certain new "models" of local representations; these models generalize the usual generic models. The authors also computer local unramified factors in a new way using geometric ideas.
