Given a spectral triple on a [Formula: see text]-algebra [Formula: see text] together with a unital injective endomorphism [Formula: see text], the problem of defining a suitable crossed product [Formula: see text]-algebra endowed with a spectral triple is addressed. The proposed construction is mainly based on the works of Cuntz and [A. Hawkins, A. Skalski, S. White and J. Zacharias, On spectral triples on crossed products arising from equicontinuous actions, Math. Scand. 113(2) (2013) 262–291], and on our previous papers [V. Aiello, D. Guido and T. Isola, Spectral triples for noncommutative solenoidal spaces from self-coverings, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 448(2) (2017) 1378–1412; V. Aiello, D. Guido and T. Isola, A spectral triple for a solenoid based on the Sierpinski gasket, SIGMA Symmetry Integrability Geom. Methods Appl. 17(20) (2021) 21]. The embedding of [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] can be considered as the dual form of a covering projection between noncommutative spaces. A main assumption is the expansiveness of the endomorphism, which takes the form of the local isometricity of the covering projection, and is expressed via the compatibility of the Lip-norms on [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].

AbstractWe consider a class (A; S; α) of dynamical systems, where S is an Ore semigroup and α is an action such that each αs is injective and extendible (i.e. it extends to a non-unital endomorphism of the multiplier algebra), and has range an ideal of A. We show that there is a partial action on the fixed-point algebra under the canonical coaction of the enveloping group G of S constructed in [15, Proposition 6.1]. It turns out that the full crossed product by this coaction is isomorphic to A ⋊αS. If the coaction is moreover normal, then the isomorphism can be extended to include the reduced crossed product. We look then at invariant ideals and finally, at examples of systems where our results apply.

We consider an extendible endomorphism α of a C*-algebra A. We associate to it a canonical C*-dynamical system (B, β) that extends (A, α) and is "reversible" in the sense that the endomorphism β admits a unique regular transfer operator β⁎. The theory for (B, β) is analogous to the theory of classic crossed products by automorphisms, and the key idea is to describe the counterparts of classic notions for (B, β) in terms of the initial system (A, α). We apply this idea to study the ideal structure of a non-unital version of the crossed product C*(A, α, J) introduced recently by the author and A. V. Lebedev. This crossed product depends on the choice of an ideal J in (ker α)⊥, and if J = ( ker α)⊥ it is a modification of Stacey's crossed product that works well with non-injective α's. We provide descriptions of the lattices of ideals in C*(A, α, J) consisting of gauge-invariant ideals and ideals generated by their intersection with A. We investigate conditions under which these lattices coincide with the set of all ideals in C*(A, α, J). In particular, we obtain simplicity criteria that besides minimality of the action require either outerness of powers of α or pointwise quasinilpotence of α.

In this paper, we describe the commutant of an arbitrary subalgebra A of the algebra of functions on a set X in a crossed product of A with the integers, where the latter act on A by a composition automorphism defined via a bijection of X. The resulting conditions which are necessary and sufficient for A to be maximal abelian in the crossed product are subsequently applied to situations where these conditions can be shown to be equivalent to a condition in topological dynamics. As a further step, using the Gelfand transform, we obtain for a commutative completely regular semi-simple Banach algebra a topological dynamical condition on its character space which is equivalent to the algebra being maximal abelian in a crossed product with the integers.

AbstractWe consider a family of dynamical systems (A, α, L) in which α is an endomorphism of a C*-algebra A and L is a transfer operator for α. We extend Exel's construction of a crossed product to cover non-unital algebras A, and show that the C*-algebra of a locally finite graph can be realised as one of these crossed products. When A is commutative, we find criteria for the simplicity of the crossed product, and analyse the ideal structure of the crossed product.

Connes showed that spectral triples encode (noncommutative) metric information. Further, Connes and Moscovici in their metric bundle construction showed that, as with the Takesaki duality theorem, forming a crossed product spectral triple can substantially simplify the structure. In a recent paper, Bellissard, Marcolli and Reihani (among other things) studied in depth metric notions for spectral triples and crossed product spectral triples for $Z$-actions, with applications in number theory and coding theory. In the work of Connes and Moscovici, crossed products involving groups of diffeomorphisms and even of étale groupoids are required. With this motivation, the present paper develops part of the Bellissard-Marcolli-Reihani theory for a general discrete group action, and in particular, introduces coaction spectral triples and their associated metric notions. The isometric condition is replaced by the contractive condition.

We construct the crossed product [Formula: see text] of a C(X)-algebra [Formula: see text] by an endomorphism ρ, in such a way that ρ becomes induced by the bimodule [Formula: see text] of continuous sections of a vector bundle ℰ → X. Some motivating examples for such a construction are given. Furthermore, we study the C*-algebra of G-invariant elements of the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra [Formula: see text] associated with [Formula: see text], where G is a (noncompact, in general) group acting on ℰ. In particular, the C*-algebra of invariant elements with respect to the action of the group of special unitaries of ℰ is a crossed product in the above sense. We also study the analogous construction on certain Hilbert bimodules, called "noncommutative pullbacks".

AbstractThe first purpose of this paper is to give a tensor product formula of the characteristic invariant and modular invariant for a tensor product action of a discrete group G on AFD factors. The second purpose is to describe a characteristic invariant and modular invariant of the extended action to a crossed product in terms of the original invariants.

We show that induction of covariant representations for C*-dynamical systems is natural in the sense that it gives a natural transformation between certain crossed-product functors. This involves setting up suitable categories of C*-algebras and dynamical systems, and extending the usual constructions of crossed products to define the appropriate functors. From this point of view, Green's Imprimitivity Theorem identifies the functors for which induction is a natural equivalence. Various special cases of these results have previously been obtained on an ad hoc basis.

AbstractWe give a formula for the Dixmier-Douady class of a continuous-trace groupoid crossed product that arises from an action of a locally trivial, proper, principal groupoid on a bundle of elementary C*-algebras that satisfies Fell's condition.

Let [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be two ergodic essentially free probability measure preserving actions of nonamenable Baumslag–Solitar groups whose canonical almost normal abelian subgroups act aperiodically. We prove that an isomorphism between the corresponding crossed product II1 factors forces [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text]. This improves an orbit equivalence rigidity result obtained by Houdayer and Raum in [Baumslag–Solitar groups, relative profinite completions and measure equivalence rigidity, J. Topol. 8 (2015) 295–313].
