Reconstruction of graded groupoids from graded Steinberg algebras
We show how to reconstruct a graded ample Hausdorff groupoid with topologically principal
neutrally-graded component from the ring structure of its graded Steinberg algebra over
any commutative integral domain with 1, together with the embedding of the canonical
abelian subring of functions supported on the unit space. We deduce that
diagonal-preserving ring isomorphism of Leavitt path algebras implies -isomorphism
of -algebras for graphs and in which every cycle has an exit.

Tensor products of Leavitt path algebras
We compute the Hochschild homology of Leavitt path algebras over a field .
As an application, we show that and have different
Hochschild homologies, and so they are not Morita equivalent; in particular
they are not isomorphic. Similarly, and
are distinguished by their Hochschild homologies and so they are not Morita
equivalent either. By contrast, we show that -theory cannot distinguish
these algebras; we have and

Convex subshifts, separated Bratteli diagrams, and ideal structure of tame separated graph algebras
We introduce a new class of partial actions of free groups on totally
disconnected compact Hausdorff spaces, which we call convex subshifts. These
serve as an abstract framework for the partial actions associated with finite
separated graphs in much the same way as classical subshifts generalize the
edge shift of a finite graph. We define the notion of a finite type convex
subshift and show that any such subshift is Kakutani equivalent to the partial
action associated with a finite bipartite separated graph. We then study the
ideal structure of both the full and the reduced tame graph C*-algebras,
and , of a separated graph , and
of the abelianized Leavitt path algebra as well. These
algebras are the (reduced) crossed products with respect to the above-mentioned
partial actions, and we prove that there is a lattice isomorphism between the
lattice of induced ideals and the lattice of hereditary -saturated
subsets of a certain infinite separated graph built
from , called the separated Bratteli diagram of . We finally use
these tools to study simplicity and primeness of the tame separated graph
algebras.Comment: 60 page
Maximal C*-algebras of quotients and injective envelopes of C*-algebras
A new C*-enlargement of a C*-algebra nested between the local multiplier
algebra of and its injective envelope is
introduced. Various aspects of this maximal C*-algebra of quotients,
, are studied, notably in the setting of AW*-algebras. As a
by-product we obtain a new example of a type I C*-algebra such that

A not so simple local multiplier algebra
We construct an AF-algebra such that its local multiplier algebra
does not agree with ,
thus answering a question raised by G.K. Pedersen in 1978.Comment: 18 page
Dynamical systems associated to separated graphs, graph algebras, and paradoxical decompositions
We attach to each finite bipartite separated graph (E,C) a partial dynamical
system (\Omega(E,C), F, \theta), where \Omega(E,C) is a zero-dimensional
metrizable compact space, F is a finitely generated free group, and {\theta} is
a continuous partial action of F on \Omega(E,C). The full crossed product
C*-algebra O(E,C) = C(\Omega(E,C)) \rtimes_{\theta} F is shown to be a
canonical quotient of the graph C*-algebra C^*(E,C) of the separated graph
(E,C). Similarly, we prove that, for any *-field K, the algebraic crossed
product L^{ab}_K(E,C) = C_K(\Omega(E,C)) \rtimes_\theta^{alg} F is a canonical
quotient of the Leavitt path algebra L_K(E,C) of (E,C). The monoid
V(L^{ab}_K(E,C)) of isomorphism classes of finitely generated projective
modules over L^{ab}_K(E,C) is explicitly computed in terms of monoids
associated to a canonical sequence of separated graphs. Using this, we are able
to construct an action of a finitely generated free group F on a
zero-dimensional metrizable compact space Z such that the type semigroup S(Z,
F, K) is not almost unperforated, where K denotes the algebra of clopen subsets
of Z. Finally we obtain a characterization of the separated graphs (E,C) such
that the canonical partial action of F on \Omega(E,C) is topologically free.Comment: Final version to appear in Advances in Mathematic
The regular algebra of a quiver
Let be a fixed field. We attach to each column-finite quiver a von
Neumann regular -algebra in a functorial way. The algebra is a
universal localization of the usual path algebra associated with .
