On a groupoid construction for actions of certain inverse semigroups
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a version of the notion of F -inverse semigroup (studied in the algebraic theory of inverse semigroups). We point out that an action of such an inverse semigroup on a locally compact space has associated a natural groupoid construction, very similar to the one of a transformation group. We discuss examples related to Toeplitz algebras on subsemigroups of discrete groups, to Cuntz-Krieger algebras, and to crossed-products by partial automorphisms in the sense of Exel.

Inverse Semigroups and Combinatorial C*-algebras
We describe a special class of representations of an inverse semigroup S on Hilbert's space which we term tight. These representations are supported on a subset of the spectrum of the idempotent semilattice of S, called the tight spectrum, which is in turn shown to be precisely the closure of the space of ultra-filters, once filters are identified with semicharacters in a natural way. These rep...
متن کاملC∗-ACTIONS OF r-DISCRETE GROUPOIDS AND INVERSE SEMIGROUPS
Many important C∗-algebras, such as AF-algebras, Cuntz-Krieger algebras, graph algebras and foliation C∗-algebras, are the C∗-algebras of r-discrete groupoids. These C∗-algebras are often associated with inverse semigroups through the C∗-algebra of the inverse semigroup [HR90] or through a crossed product construction as in Kumjian’s localization [Kum84]. Nica [Nic94] connects groupoid C∗-algeb...
متن کاملOn Ideal Elements in Poe-AG-groupoid
In this paper we introduce the concept of ideal elements in poe-AG-groupoid and give some characterizations and properties of their ideal elements. So we consider some results concerning ideals in poe-semigroups and investigate them in poe-AG-groupoids. Also, the class of ideal elements of poe-AG-groupoids are studied, certain intrinsic and basic properties of poe-AG-groupoids including: ideal,...
متن کاملCayley Color Graphs of Inverse Semigroups and Groupoids
The notion of Cayley color graphs of groups is generalized to inverse semigroups and groupoids. The set of partial automorphisms of the Cayley color graph of an inverse semigroup or a groupoid is isomorphic to the original inverse semigroup or groupoid. The groupoid of color permuting partial automorphisms of the Cayley color graph of a transitive groupoid is isomorphic to the original groupoid.
متن کاملA Topological Approach to Inverse and Regular Semigroups
Work of Ehresmann and Schein shows that an inverse semigroup can be viewed as a groupoid with an order structure; this approach was generalized by Nambooripad to apply to arbitrary regular semigroups. This paper introduces the notion of an ordered 2-complex and shows how to represent any ordered groupoid as the fundamental groupoid of an ordered 2-complex. This approach then allows us to constr...
