We consider a class of dynamical systems with compact non-abelian groups that include C*-, W*- and multiplier dynamical systems. We prove results that relate the algebraic properties such as simplicity or primeness of the fixed point algebras to the spectral properties of the action, including the Connes and strong Connes spectra.

We consider compact group actions on C*- and W*-algebras. We prove results that relate the duality property of the action (as defined in the Introduction) with other relevant properties of the system such as the relative commutant of the fixed point algebras being trivial (called the irreducibility of the inclusion) and also to the Galois correspondence between invariant C*-subalgebras containing the fixed point algebra and the class of closed normal subgroups of the compact group.

We study the dynamics of endomorphisms on a finite abelian group. We obtain the automorphism group for these dynamical systems. We also give criteria and algorithms to determine whether it is a fixed point system.

This is a follow-up to a paper with the same title and by the same authors. In that paper, all groups were assumed to be abelian, and we are now aiming to generalize the results to nonabelian groups. The motivating point is Pedersen’s theorem, which does hold for an arbitrary locally compact group [Formula: see text], saying that two actions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] are outer conjugate if and only if the dual coactions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] are conjugate via an isomorphism that maps the image of [Formula: see text] onto the image of [Formula: see text] (inside the multiplier algebras of the respective crossed products). We do not know of any examples of a pair of non-outer-conjugate actions such that their dual coactions are conjugate, and our interest is therefore exploring the necessity of latter condition involving the images; and we have decided to use the term “Pedersen rigid” for cases where this condition is indeed redundant. There is also a related problem, concerning the possibility of a so-called equivariant coaction having a unique generalized fixed-point algebra, that we call “fixed-point rigidity”. In particular, if the dual coaction of an action is fixed-point rigid, then the action itself is Pedersen rigid, and no example of non-fixed-point-rigid coaction is known.

AbstractWe will consider coactions of discrete groups on C*-algebras and imitate some of the results about compact group actions on C*-algebras. In particular, the crossed product of a reduced coaction ∈ of a discrete amenable group G on A is liminal (respectively, postliminal) if and only if the fixed point algebra of ∈ is. Moreover, we will also consider ergodic coactions on C*-algebras.

AbstractIt is well known that a complex-valued function ø, analytic on some open set Ω, extends to any commutative Banach algebra B so that the action of ø on B commutes with the action of the Gelfand transformation. In this paper, it is shown that if B is a homogeneous convolution Banach algebra over any compact group and if 0 ∈ Ω is a fixed point of ø, then a similar result holds, with the Gelfand transformation replaced by the Fourier-Stieltjes transformation. Care is required, in that discussion of this relation usually requires simultaneous consideration of the extension of ø to B and to certain operator algebras.

Let G be a Moore group. Then, for each f∈L1(G), the convolution operator Lf: L1(G)→L1(G) is decomposable. On the other hand, there is a discrete probability measure µ on a compact group G such that Lµ: Ll(G)→Ll(G) fails to be decomposable.

AbstractIt has been shown by J. Feldman, P. Hahn and C. C. Moore that every non-singular action of a second countable locally compact group has a countable (in fact so-called lacunary) complete measurable section. This is extended here to the purely Borel theoretic category, consisting of a Borel action of such a group on an analytic Borel space (without any measure). Characterizations of when an arbitrary Borel equivalence relation admits a countable complete Borel section are also established.
