Wieler solenoids: non-Hausdorff expansiveness, Cuntz-Pimsner models, and functorial properties

Abstract

Building on work of Williams, Wieler proved that every irreducible Smale space with totally disconnected stable sets can be realized via a stationary inverse limit. Using this result, the first and fourth listed authors of the present paper showed that the stable $C^*$-algebra associated to such a Smale space can be obtained from a stationary inductive limit of a Fell algebra. Its spectrum is typically non-Hausdorff and admits a self-map related to the stationary inverse limit. With the goal of understanding the fine structure of the stable algebra and the stable Ruelle algebra, we study said self-map on the spectrum of the Fell algebra as a dynamical system in its own right. Our results can be summarized into the statement that this dynamical system is an expansive, surjective, local homeomorphism of a compact, locally Hausdorff space and from its $K$-theory we can compute $K$-theoretical invariants of the stable and unstable Ruelle algebra of a Smale space with totally disconnected stable sets.

Maximal Ergodic Theorems for Operators with Finite Peripheral Spectrum

Let $\mathcal M$ be a semifinite von Neumann algebra and $T : \mathcal{M} \to \mathcal{M}$ be a positive $L_\infty-L_1$ contraction in the sense of Junge-Xu, of which the numerical range, when viewed as an operator on $L_2(\mathcal M),$ is contained in a closed polygon with vertices on the unit circle. In this article, we prove that there exists a positive constant $C_p(T)$ such that \begin{equation}\label{abstract1stin} \Big\|\sup_{n \ge 0}\!^{+} T^n x \Big\|_p \le C_p(T)\, \|x\|_p \end{equation} for all \( x \in L_p(\mathcal{M}) \), $1<p<\infty$ extending some noncommutative maximal ergodic inequalities proved by Junge-Xu \cite{junge-Xu} and later generalized by Bekjan \cite{Bekjan2008}. In the commutative setting, similar inequalities as in \eqref{abstract1stin} hold for arbitrary $L_\infty-L_1$ contractions with the same condition in the numerical range, yielding a vast generalization of a classical maximal ergodic theorem of Stein \cite{Stein-ergodic-theorem} proved in 1960s. Moreover, we establish a noncommutative weak-type maximal inequality for convolution powers which was proved by Calderón and Bellow \cite{Bellow-Calderon} in the classical setting, complementing our strong type noncommutative maximal ergodic inequalities. Our method relies on several new polynomial identities, suitable square function estimates tailored to fit our setting and generalization of Stein's method of embedding maximal function into analytic family of operators. However, we show that even in the classical setting, the variational inequality extending \eqref{abstract1stin} holds for arbitrary operators described above, precisely when the spectrum meets the unit circle only at $1.$

Group actions on von Neumann algebras with compact open subgroups

We study strictly outer actions of locally compact groups with a compact open subgroup on von Neumann factors. For amenable groups, we prove 2-cohomology vanishing and obtain classification results using a description of the central sequence algebra and Rohlin-type observations. We also characterize the inclusions of factors associated with group actions, and extend M. Choda's result to this locally compact setting.

Covariant representations of actions of inverse semigroups: a new approach to the reduced and essential crossed-product C*-algebras

We consider an action of an inverse semigroup on a C*-algebra $A$ and use it to construct a groupoid of germs with unit space the spectrum of $A$. Motivated by the representation theory of C*-algebras of groupoids, we construct a concrete family of covariant representations for the action. We use this family to give new definitions of the reduced and essential crossed product C*-algebras that avoid, respectively, passing to the double commutant and local multiplier algebra of $A$. Our reduced crossed product is isomorphic to the one defined by Exel, Buss and Meyer, and when the inverse semigroup is quasi-countable our essential crossed product is isomorphic to the one defined by Kwaśniewski and Meyer.
