AbstractIn this paper, we introduce a C*-algebra associated with a primitive substitution. We show that when σ is proper, the C*-algebra is simple and purely infinite and contains the associated Cuntz–Krieger algebra and the crossed product C*-algebra of the corresponding Cantor minimal system. We calculate the K-groups.

We discuss some recent developments that illustrate the interplay between the theory of crossed products of continuous trace C*-algebras and algebraic topology, summarizing results relating topological invariants coming from the theory of fiber bundles to continuous trace C*-algebras and their automorphism groups and the structure of the associated crossed product C*-algebras. This survey article starts from the classical theory of Dixmier, Douady, and Fell, and discusses the more recent work of Echterhoff, Phillips, Raeburn, Rosenberg, and Williams, among others. The topological invariants involved are Čech cohomology, the cohomology of locally compact groups with Borel cochains of C. Moore, and the recently introduced equivariant cohomology theory of Crocker, Kumjian, Raeburn and Williams.

Suppose that H is a closed subgroup of a locally compact group G. We show that a unitary representation U of H is the restriction of a unitary representation of G if and only if a dual representation Û of a crossed product C*(G) ⋊ (G/H) is regular in an appropriate sense. We then discuss the problem of deciding whether a given representation is regular; we believe that this problem will prove to be an interesting test question in non-Abelian duality for crossed products of C*-algebras.

For each α ≥ 0, let Bα be the universal C*-algebra generated by unitary elements uα, vα and a self-adjoint hα such that ||hα|| ≤ α and [Formula: see text]. In this work we prove that the family {Bα}α ∈ [0,∞[ extend the family of soft torus with the same basic properties, i.e., the field of C*-algebras {Bα}α ∈ [0,α0] is continuous and each Bα is a crossed product of a C*-algebra homotopically equivalent to C(S1) by Z. We then show that the K-groups of Bα are isomorphic to Z ⊕ Z. Applying results from the theory of rotation algebras we prove that every positive element (n,m) in K0(Bα) satisfies |m|α ≤ 2πn. It follows that these C*-algebras are not all homotopically equivalent to each other, although they have the same K-groups.

A method for constructing densely defined lower semi-continuous weights on C*-algebras is presented. The method can be used to construct a "dual weight" on the C*-crossed product A×αG of a C*-dynamical system (A,G,α), starting from a relatively α-invariant densely defined lower semi-continuous weight on A. As an application we show that the Haar measure on the quantum E(2) group is a C*-dual weight.

We define the notion of strong spectral invariance for a dense Fréchet subalgebra A of a Banach algebra B. We show that if A is strongly spectral invariant in a C*-algebra B, and G is a compactly generated polynomial growth Type R Lie group, not necessarily connected, then the smooth crossed product G ⋊ A is spectral invariant in the C*-crossed product G ⋊ B. Examples of such groups are given by finitely generated polynomial growth discrete groups, compact or connected nilpotent Lie groups, the group of Euclidean motions on the plane, the Mautner group, or any closed subgroup of one of these. Our theorem gives the spectral invariance of G ⋊ A if A is the set of C∞-vectors for the action of G on B, or if B = C0 (M), and A is a set of G-differentiable Schwartz functions [Formula: see text] on M. This gives many examples of spectral invariant dense subalgebras for the C*-algebras associated with dynamical systems. We also obtain relevant results about exact sequences, subalgebras, tensoring by smooth compact operators, and strong spectral invariance in L1 (G, B).

An action (γ, α) of a locally compact group G on a Hilbert pro-C∗-bimodule (X, A) induces an action γ × α of G on A ×X Z the crossed product of A by X. We show that if (γ, α) is an inverse limit action, then the crossed product of A ×α G by X ×γ G respectively of A ×α,r G by X ×γ,r G is isomorphic to the full crossed product of A ×X Z by γ × α respectively the reduced crossed product of A ×X Z by γ × α.
