Abstract

We provide an exposition and proof of Renault's equivalence theorem for crossed products by locally Hausdorff, locally compact groupoids. Our approach stresses the bundle approach, concrete imprimitivity bimodules and is a preamble to a detailed treatment of the Brauer semigroup for a locally Hausdorff, locally compact groupoid.

Aperiodic automorphisms of the Razak--Jacelon algebra

We completely classify aperiodic automorphisms of the Razak--Jacelon algebra $\mathcal{W}$ up to outer conjugacy. As a technical ingredient, based on the works of Connes, Herman--Ocneanu, Kishimoto, and Sato, we introduce a notion of weak stability for automorphisms of simple separable monotracial C$^*$-algebras. We also consider automorphisms of UHF algebras of infinite type and the Jiang--Su algebra. In particular, we classify aperiodic ``UHF-absorbing'' automorphisms of UHF algebras of infinite type up to outer conjugacy.

On the Isomorphism of Semicircular Algebras

Building on OpenAI's proof of isomorphism of free group factors, we give a self-contained proof of a corresponding result for $C^{*}$-algebras generated by free semicircular systems: the isomorphism class of a $C^{*}$-algebra generated by a semicircular $n$-tuple does not depend on $n\in\{2,3,\dots,+\infty\}$. Similarly, reduced free products of $n$ copies of the Jiang--Su algebra are isomorphic for different $n$ in this range. While reduced free group $C^{*}$-algebras of different ranks are not isomorphic (by a result of Pimsner--Voiculescu), we show that they have strong free absorption properties. At the heart of the proof is an automorphism approximation property for inclusions of $C^{*}$- and $W^{*}$-algebras; a relative version of that property was previously used to derive free complementation results.

Spectral truncations of SU(2) and the spectral localizer

We study operator systems arising from Peter-Weyl and Dirac spectral truncations of $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ in the sense of Connes-Van Suijlekom. We determine operator system invariants for these systems, including the $C^*$-envelope and uniform bounds on the propagation number. For Peter-Weyl truncations, we find $\mathrm{prop} \leq 2$ for all connected compact Lie groups, generalizing known results for the torus. We also carry out an analysis of the spectral localizer by Loring and Schulz-Baldes on $\mathrm{SU}(2)$. In this analysis, we find numerical evidence that an index map for operator systems previously proposed by Van Suijlekom only captures the right information in a suitable interval of the parameter $κ$, instead of the limit $κ\downarrow 0$.
