Crossed Product Structures Associated with Topological Dynamical Systems

چکیده
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.

On the Exel crossed product of topological covering maps
For dynamical systems defined by a covering map of a compact Hausdorff space and the corresponding transfer operator, the associated crossed product C∗-algebras C(X) ⋊α,L N introduced by Exel and Vershik are considered. An important property for homeomorphism dynamical systems is topological freeness. It can be extended in a natural way to in general non-invertible dynamical systems generated b...
متن کاملDynamical distance as a semi-metric on nuclear conguration space
In this paper, we introduce the concept of dynamical distance on a nuclear conguration space. We partition the nuclear conguration space into disjoint classes. This classification coincides with the classical partitioning of molecular systems via the concept of conjugacy of dynamical systems. It gives a quantitative criterion to distinguish dierent molecular structures.
متن کاملEntropy operator for continuous dynamical systems of finite topological entropy
In this paper we introduce the concept of entropy operator for continuous systems of finite topological entropy. It is shown that it generates the Kolmogorov entropy as a special case. If $phi$ is invertible then the entropy operator is bounded with the topological entropy of $phi$ as its norm.
متن کاملThe Crossed Product by a Partial Endomorphism and the Covariance Algebra
Given a local homeomorphism σ : U → X where U ⊆ X is clopen and X is a compact and Hausdorff topological space, we obtain the possible transfer operators Lρ which may occur for α : C(X) → C(U) given by α(f) = f ◦ σ. We obtain examples of partial dynamical systems (XA, σA) such that the construction of the covariance algebra C (XA, σA) and the crossed product by partial endomorphism O(XA, α, L) ...
متن کامل- Algebras Generated by Partial Isometries
We associate to each discrete partial dynamical system a universal C-algebra generated by partial isometries satisfying relations given by a Boolean algebra connected to the discrete partial dynamical system in question. We show that for symbolic dynamical systems like one-sided and two-sided shift spaces and topological Markov chains with an arbitrary state space the C-algebras usually associa...
