Strong Morita Equivalence

We consider two twisted actions of a countable discrete group on $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebras. Then by taking the reduced crossed products, we get two inclusions of $C^*$-algebras. We suppose that they are strongly Morita equivalent as inclusions of $C^*$-algebras. Also, we suppose that one of the inclusions of $C^*$-algebras is irreducible, that is, the relative commutant of one of the $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebra in the multiplier $C^*$-algebra of the reduced twisted crossed product is trivial. We show that the two actions are then strongly Morita equivalent up to some automorphism of the group.

Strong Morita Equivalence

We give a solution, via operator spaces, of an old problem in the Morita equivalence of $C^*$-algebras. Namely, we show that $C^*$-algebras are strongly Morita equivalent in the sense of Rieffel if and only if their categories of left operator modules are isomorphic via completely contractive functors. Moreover, any such functor is completely isometrically isomorphic to the Haagerup tensor product (= interior tensor product) with a strong Morita equivalence bimodule. An operator module over a $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$ is a closed subspace of some B(H) which is left invariant under multiplication by $\pi(\mathcal\ A)$, where $\pi$ is a*-representation of $\mathcal A$ on $H$. The category $_{\mathcal{AHMOD}}$ of *-representations of $\mathcal A$ on Hilbert space is a full subcategory of the category $_{\mathcal{AOMOD}}$ of operator modules. Our main result remains true with respect to subcategories of $OMOD$ which contain $HMOD$ and the $C^*$-algebra itself. It does not seem possible to remove the operator space framework; in the very simplest cases there may exist no bounded equivalence functors on categories with bounded module maps as morphisms (as opposed to completely bounded ones). Our proof involves operator space techniques, together with a $C^*$-algebra argument using compactness of the quasistate space of a $C^*$-algebra, and lowersemicontinuity in the enveloping von Neumann algebra.

Close Relationship

AbstractUsing the close relationship between coactions of discrete groups and Fell bundles, we introduce a procedure for inducing a C*-coaction δ: D → D ⊗C*(G/N) of a quotient group G/N of a discrete group G to a C*-coaction Ind δ: Ind D → D ⊗C*(G) of G. We show that induced coactions behave in many respects similarly to induced actions. In particular, as an analogue of the well known imprimitivity theorem for induced actions we prove that the crossed products Ind D ×IndδG and D ×δG/N are always Morita equivalent. We also obtain nonabelian analogues of a theorem of Olesen and Pedersen which show that there is a duality between induced coactions and twisted actions in the sense of Green. We further investigate amenability of Fell bundles corresponding to induced coactions.

K Theory

We use a recent result by Cuntz, Echterhoff and Li about the $K$-theory of certain reduced $C^*$-crossed products to describe the $K$-theory of $C^*_r(S)$ when $S$ is an inverse semigroup satisfying certain requirements. A result of Milan and Steinberg allows us to show that $C^*_r(S)$ is Morita equivalent to a crossed product of the type handled by Cuntz, Echterhoff and Li. We apply our result to graph inverse semigroups and the inverse semigroups of one-dimensional tilings.

Strong Morita Equivalence

In [14] we began a study of C*-algebras corresponding to projective representations of the discrete Heisenberg group, and classified these C*-algebras up to *-isomorphism. In this sequel to [14] we continue the study of these so-called Heisenberg C*-algebras, first concentrating our study on the strong Morita equivalence classes of these C*-algebras. We recall from [14] that a Heisenberg C*-algebra is said to be of class i, i ∊ {1, 2, 3}, if the range of any normalized trace on its K 0 group has rank i as a subgroup of R; results of Curto, Muhly, and Williams [7] on strong Morita equivalence for crossed products along with the methods of [21] and [14] enable us to construct certain strong Morita equivalence bimodules for Heisenberg C*-algebras.

Unital Simple

Let X be a Cantor set, and let A be a unital separable simple amenable [Formula: see text]-stable C*-algebra with rationally tracial rank no more than one, which satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem (UCT). We use C(X, A) to denote the algebra of all continuous functions from X to A. Let α be an automorphism on C(X, A). Suppose that C(X, A) is α-simple, [α|1⊗A] = [ id |1⊗A] in KL(1 ⊗ A, C(X, A)), τ(α(1 ⊗ a)) = τ(1 ⊗ a) for all τ ∈ T(C(X, A)) and all a ∈ A, and [Formula: see text] for all u ∈ U(A) (where α‡ and id‡ are homomorphisms from U(C(X, A))/CU(C(X, A)) → U(C(X, A))/CU(C(X, A)) induced by α and id, respectively, and where CU(C(X, A)) is the closure of the subgroup generated by commutators of the unitary group U(C(X, A)) of C(X, A)), then the corresponding crossed product C(X, A) ⋊α ℤ is a unital simple [Formula: see text]-stable C*-algebra with rationally tracial rank no more than one, which satisfies the UCT. Let X be a Cantor set and 𝕋 be the circle. Let γ : X × 𝕋n → X × 𝕋n be a minimal homeomorphism. It is proved that, as long as the cocycles are rotations, the tracial rank of the corresponding crossed product C*-algebra is always no more than one.

Morita Equivalent

Given a free action of a group $G$ on a directed graph $E$ we show that the crossed product of $C^* (E)$, the universal $C^*$-algebra of $E$, by the induced action is strongly Morita equivalent to $C^* (E/G)$. Since every connected graph $E$ may be expressed as the quotient of a tree $T$ by an action of a free group $G$ we may use our results to show that $C^* (E)$ is strongly Morita equivalent to the crossed product $C_0 ( \partial T ) \times G$, where $\partial T$ is a certain zero-dimensional space canonically associated to the tree.

AbstractWe show that the property of a C*-algebra that all its Hilbert modules have a frame, in the case of σ-unital C*-algebras, is preserved under Rieffel–Morita equivalence. In particular, we show that a σ-unital continuous-trace C*-algebra with trivial Dixmier–Douady class, all of whose Hilbert modules admit a frame, has discrete spectrum. We also show this for the tensor product of any commutative C*-algebra with the C*-algebra of compact operators on any Hilbert space.

Equivalence Result

We show how to extend a classic Morita Equivalence Result of Green's to the $C^*$-algebras of Fell bundles over transitive groupoids. Specifically, we show that if $p:{\mathcal B}\to G$ is a saturated Fell bundle over a transitive groupoid $G$ with stability group $H=G(u)$ at $u\in G^{(0)}$, then $C^* (G,{\mathcal B})$ is Morita equivalent to $C^*(H,{\mathcal C})$, where ${\mathcal C}={\mathcal B}_{| H}$. As an application, we show that if $p:{\mathcal B}\to G$ is a Fell bundle over a group $G$ and if there is a continuous $G$-equivariant map $\sigma:$ Prim $A\to G/H$, where $A=B(e)$ is the $C^*$-algebra of $\mathcal B$ and $H$ is a closed subgroup, then $C^*(G,{\mathcal B})$ is Morita equivalent to $C^* (H,{\mathcal C}^{I})$ where ${\mathcal C}^{I}$ is a Fell bundle over $H$ whose fibres are $A/I$-$A/I$-imprimitivity bimodules and $I=\bigcap\{ P:\sigma(P)=eH\}$. Green's result is a special case of our application to bundles over groups.
