Fixed point algebras for weakly proper Fell bundles

Abstract

We define weakly proper Fell bundles and construct exotic fixed point algebras for such bundles. Three alternative constructions of such algebras are given. Under a kind of freeness condition, one of our constructions implies that every exotic cross sectional C*-algebra of a weakly proper Fell bundle is Morita equivalent to an exotic fixed point algebras. The other constructions are used to show that ours generalizes that of Buss and Echterhoff on weakly proper actions on C*-algebras. We also generalize to Fell bundles the fact that every C*-action which is proper in Kasparov's sense is amenable.

Quantum Cheeger Inequalities for KMS-Symmetric Quantum Markov Semigroups

In this paper, we establish a quantum Cheeger inequality for primitive KMS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroups in terms of projection conductance. We discuss both projection conductance and classical conductance for graph-based KMS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroups. We show that hypercontractivity and the logarithmic Sobolev inequality hold for primitive KMS-symmetric quantum Markov semigroups. We also present applications of the quantum Cheeger inequality to logarithmic Sobolev inequalities, hypercontractivity, and complete modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities.

A characterization of simplicity of reduced groupoid C*-algebras

We show that, for a second-countable locally compact Hausdorff étale minimal groupoid with compact unit space, simplicity of the reduced groupoid C*-algebra implies the existence of a comeager set of unit points with C*-simple isotropy group. Combining this result with work of Christensen and Neshveyev on exotic completions of isotropy group algebras, we show that the converse implication is also true. Finally, we construct a Hausdorff étale minimal groupoid with an isotropy group whose induced exotic completion differs from its reduced group C*-algebra, answering a question of Christensen and Neshveyev.

A three-functor formalism for commutative von Neumann algebras

A three-functor formalism is the half of a six-functor formalism that supports the projection and base change formulas. In this paper, we provide a three-functor formalism for commutative von Neumann algebras and their modules. Using the Gelfand-Naimark theorem, this gives rise to a three-functor formalism for measure spaces and measurable bundles of Hilbert spaces. We use this to prove Fell absorption for unitary representations of measure groupoids. The three-functor formalism for commutative von Neumann algebras takes values in W*-categories, and we discuss in what sense it is a unitary three-functor formalism.
