Regularity Properties in the Classification Program for Separable Amenable C-algebras
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report on recent progress in the program to classify separable amenable C∗-algebras. Our emphasis is on the newly apparent role of regularity properties such as finite decomposition rank, strict comparison of positive elements, and Z-stability, and on the importance of the Cuntz semigroup. We include a brief history of the program’s successes since 1989, a more detailed look at the Villadsen-type algebras which have so dramatically changed the landscape, and a collection of announcements on the structure and properties of the Cuntz semigroup.

Various topological forms of Von Neumann regularity in Banach algebras
We study topological von Neumann regularity and principal von Neumann regularity of Banach algebras. Our main objective is comparing these two types of Banach algebras and some other known Banach algebras with one another. In particular, we show that the class of topologically von Neumann regular Banach algebras contains all $C^*$-algebras, group algebras of compact abelian groups and ...
متن کاملA Simple C∗-algebra with Finite Nuclear Dimension Which Is Not Z-stable
We construct a simple C∗-algebra with nuclear dimension zero that is not isomorphic to its tensor product with the Jiang–Su algebra Z, and a hyperfinite II1 factor not isomorphic to its tensor product with the separable hyperfinite II1 factor R. The proofs use a weakening of the Continuum Hypothesis. Elliott’s program of classification of nuclear (a.k.a. amenable) C∗-algebras recently underwent...
متن کاملIdeal Amenability of Banach Algebras and Some Hereditary Properties
Let A be a Banach algebra. A is called ideally amenable if for every closed ideal I of A, the first cohomology group of A with coefficients in I* is trivial. We investigate the closed ideals I for which H1 (A,I* )={0}, whenever A is weakly amenable or a biflat Banach algebra. Also we give some hereditary properties of ideal amenability.

In this paper we study the properties of derivations of A B, where A and B are simple separable C*-algebras, and A B is the C*-completion of A B with respect to a C*-norm Yon A B and we will characterize the derivations of A B in terms of the derivations of A and B
متن کاملAMENABILITY OF VECTOR VALUED GROUP ALGEBRAS
The purpose of this article is to develop the notions of amenabilityfor vector valued group algebras. We prove that L1(G, A) is approximatelyweakly amenable where A is a unital separable Banach algebra. We givenecessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a left invariant meanon L∞(G, A∗), LUC(G, A∗), WAP(G, A∗) and C0(G, A∗).
