Topological Dynamical Systems and Regularity Properties of Reduced Crossed Product C∗-Algebras TOPOLOGICAL DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS AND REGULARITY PROPERTIES OF REDUCED CROSSED PRODUCT C∗-ALGEBRAS A Dissertation by XIN MA Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, David Kerr Committee Members, Roger R. Smith Kenneth Dykema Mohsen Pourahmadi Head of Department, Emil J. Straube August 2019 Major Subject: Mathematics Copyright 2019 Xin Ma ABSTRACT In this work, we will explore the relation between topological dynamical systems and their reduced crossed product C∗-algebras. More precisely, we mainly study some dynamical properties and how they imply various of regularity properties of C∗-algebras, say, stably finiteness, pure infiniteness, finite nuclear dimension and Z-stability. Let α : G y X be a minimal free continuous action of an infinite countable amenable group on an infinite compact metrizable space. Under the hypothesis that the invariant ergodic probability Borel measure space EG(X) is compact and zero-dimensional, we show that the action α has the small boundary property. This partially answers an open problem in dynamical systems that asks whether a minimal free action of an amenable group has the small boundary property if its space MG(X) of invariant Borel probability measures forms a Bauer simplex. In addition, under the same hypothesis, we show that dynamical comparison implies almost finiteness, which was shown by Kerr to imply that the crossed product is Z-stable. This also provides two classifiability results for crossed products, one of which is based on the work of Elliott and Niu. When the group G is not amenable it is possible for action α : G y X not to have a G-invariant probability measure, in which case we show that, under the hypothesis that the action α is topolog- ically free, dynamical comparison implies that the reduced crossed product of α is purely infinite and simple. This result, as an application, shows a dichotomy between stable finiteness and pure infiniteness for reduced crossed products arising from actions satisfying dynamical comparison. We also introduce the concepts of paradoxical comparison and the uniform tower property. Under the hypothesis that the action α is exact and essentially free, we show that paradoxical comparison together with the uniform tower property implies that the reduced crossed product of α is purely infinite. As applications, we provide new results on pure infiniteness of reduced crossed products in which the underlying spaces are not necessarily zero-dimensional. Finally, we study the type semigroups of actions on the Cantor set in order to establish the equivalence of almost unperforation of the type semigroup and comparison. This sheds a light to ii a question arising in the paper of Rørdam and Sierakowski. In addition, we construct a semigroup associated to an action of countable discrete group on a compact Hausdorff space, that can be regarded as a higher dimensional generalization of the type semigroup. Using this generalized type semigroup we obtain a new characterization of dynamical comparison. This answers a question of Kerr and Schafhauser. Furthermore, we suggests a definition of comparison for dynamical systems in which neither necessarily the acting group is amenable nor the action is minimal. iii DEDICATION To Lan, whose love and support made everything of me possible. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation contains my works as a Ph.D student in the department of mathematics at Texas A&M University.

INTRODUCTION In this Chapter, we mainly recall some definitions and introduce our basic framework for our study on topological dynamical systems and their crossed product C∗-algebras. We begin with an introduction to regularity properties and the classification theory of C∗-algebras. 1.1 C∗-algebras 1.1.1 Regularity Properties of C∗-algebras 1.1.1.1 Finite Nuclear Dimension For a general introduction to C∗-algebras, we refer to [9]. The nuclear dimension of a C∗- algebra was introduced by Winter and Zacharias in [77] as a noncommutative analogue of covering dimension of a topological space. We recall the definition here. Let A be a C∗-algebra. (i) A completely positive map ' from a C∗-algebra B to A is said to be of order zero if '(a)'(b) = 0 whenever a; b are self-adjoint elements in B satisfying ab = 0. (ii) We say that a completely positive map ' from a finite-dimensional C∗-algebra B to A is n-decomposable if we can write B = B0 ⊕ · · · ⊕ Bn so that the restriction of ' to each Bi has order zero. Definition 1.1.1. The nuclear dimension of A, denoted by dimnuc(A) is the least integer n such that for every finite set F ⊂ A and > 0 there are a finite-dimensional C∗-algebra B, a

Main Idea: This paper is motivated by confusion in the use of mathematical terms like boundedness, boundary, interior, open set, exterior, complement, closed set, closure, regular set, etc. Hasse diagrams are drawn by mathematicians to study different topologies. Instead, directed graph using elementary operators of closure and complement are drawn to show their inter-relationship in the Euclidean three- dimensional space (E^3 is a special metric space formed from Cartesian product R^3 with Euclid’s postulates [11] and inheriting all general topology properties.) In mathematics, regular, regular open and regular closed are similar but different concepts.

  • A Concise Form of Continuity in Fine Topological Space
    Advances in Computational Sciences and Technology (ACST). ISSN 0973-6107 Volume 10, Number 6 (2017), pp. 1785–1805 © Research India Publications http://www.ripublication.com/acst.htm A Concise form of Continuity in Fine Topological Space P.L. Powar and Pratibha Dubey Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, R.D.V.V., Jabalpur, India. Abstract By using the topology on a space X, a wide class of sets called fine open sets have been studied earlier. In the present paper, it has been noticed and verified that the class of fine open sets contains the entire class of A-sets, AC-sets and αAB-sets, which are already defined. Further, this observation leads to define a more general continuous function which in tern reduces to the four continuous functions namely A-continuity, AB-continuity, AC-continuity and αAB-continuity as special cases. AMS subject classification: primary54XX; secondry 54CXX. Keywords: fine αAB-sets, fine A-sets, fine topology. 1. Introduction The concept of fine space has been introduced by Powar and Rajak in [1] is the special case of generalized topological space (see[2]). The major difference between the two spaces is that the open sets in the fine space are not the random collection of subsets of X satisfying certain conditions but the open sets (known as fine sets) have been generated with the help of topology already defined over X. It has been studied in [1] that this collection of fine open sets is really a magical class of subsets of X containing semi-open sets, pre-open sets, α-open sets, β-open sets etc.

    DIMENSION, COMPARISON, AND ALMOST FINITENESS DAVID KERR Abstract. We develop a dynamical version of some of the theory surrounding the Toms–Winter conjecture for simple separable nuclear C∗-algebras and study its con- nections to the C∗-algebra side via the crossed product. We introduce an analogue of hyperfiniteness for free actions of amenable groups on compact spaces and show that it plays the role of Z-stability in the Toms–Winter conjecture in its relation to dynamical comparison, and also that it implies Z-stability of the crossed product. This property, which we call almost finiteness, generalizes Matui’s notion of the same name from the zero-dimensional setting. We also introduce a notion of tower dimen- sion as a partial analogue of nuclear dimension and study its relation to dynamical comparison and almost finiteness, as well as to the dynamical asymptotic dimension and amenability dimension of Guentner, Willett, and Yu. 1. Introduction Two of the cornerstones of the theory of von Neumann algebras with separable predual are the following theorems due to Murray–von Neumann [31] and Connes [5], respectively: (i) there is a unique hyperfinite II1 factor, (ii) injectivity is equivalent to hyperfiniteness. Injectivity is a form of amenability that gives operator-algebraic expression to the idea of having an invariant mean, while hyperfiniteness means that the algebra can be expressed as the weak operator closure of an increasing sequence of finite-dimensional ∗-subalgebras (or, equivalently, that one has local ∗-ultrastrong approximation by such ∗-subalgebras [12]). The basic prototype for the relation between an invariant-mean- arXiv:1710.00393v2 [math.DS] 13 Jan 2019 type property and finite or finite-dimensional approximation is the equivalence between amenability and the Følner property for discrete groups, and indeed Connes’s proof of (ii) draws part of its inspiration from the Day–Namioka proof of this equivalence.

  • On Maximal and Minimal Μ-Clopen Sets in GT Spaces Rebati Mohan Roy1*

We obtain that maximal and minimal m-clopen sets are independent of maximal and minimal m-open and m-closed sets. We observed that the existence of maximal m-clopen set in a generalized topological space not only ensure the m-disconnectedness of a generalized topological space but also the existence of minimal m-clopen set in that space.

    672 Ennis Rosas and Sarhad F. Namiq 1. Introduction Following [3] N. Levine, 1963, defined semi open sets. Similarly, S. F. Namiq [4], definedanoperationλ on the family of semi open sets in a topological space called semi operation, denoted by s-operation; via this operation, in his study [7], he defined λsc-open set by using λ-open and semi closed sets, and also following [5], he defined λco-open set and investigated several properties of λco-derived, λco-interior and λco-closure points in topological spaces. In the present article, we define the λco-connected space, discuss some characterizations and properties of λco-connected spaces, λco-components and λco-locally connected spaces and finally its relations with others con- nected spaces. 2. Preliminaries In the entire parts of the present paper, a topological space is referred to by (X, τ)orsimplybyX.First,somedefinitions are recalled and results are used in this paper. For any subset A of X, the closure and the interior of A are denoted by Cl(A)andInt(A), respectively. Following [8], the researchers state that a subset A of X is regular closed if A =Cl(Int(A)). Similarly, following [3], a subset A of a space X is semi open if A Cl(Int(A)). The complement of a semi open set is called semi closed. The⊆ family of all semi open (resp. semi closed) sets in a space X is denoted by SO(X, τ)orSO(X) (resp. SC(X, τ)orSC(X). According to [1], a space X is stated to be s- connected, if it is not the union of two nonempty disjoint semi open subsets of X.Weconsiderλ:SO(X) P (X) as a function definedonSO(X)into the power set of X, P (X)and→ λ is called a semi-operation denoted by s-operation, if V λ(V ), for each semi open set V .

Under the axiom Nf = NI we construct examples showing that the conclusion might fail if “X is Borel” is replaced by “X is coanalytic”. If we suppose that both X and Y are Bore], then we prove (in ZFC) the weaker conclusion that f has a Bore1 (in fact a Baire-1) section g : Y + X.

  • John Von Neumann and the Theory of Operator Algebras *
    John von Neumann and the Theory of Operator Algebras * D´enes Petz 1 and Mikl´os R´edei 2 After some earlier work on single operators, von Neumann turned to families of operators in [1]. He initiated the study of rings of operators which are commonly called von Neumann algebras today. The papers which constitute the series “Rings of operators” opened a new field in mathematics and influenced research for half a century (or even longer). In the standard theory of modern operator algebras, many concepts and ideas have their origin in von Neumann’s work. Since its inception, operator algebra theory has been in intimate relation to physics. The mathematical formalism of quantum theory was one of the motivations leading naturally to algebras of Hilbert space operators. After decades of relative isolation, again physics fertil- ized the operator algebra theory by mathematical questions of quantum statistical mechanics and quantum field theory. The objective of the present article is two-fold. On the one hand, to sketch the early development of von Neumann algebras, to show how the fundamental classi- fication of algebras emerged from the lattice of projections. These old ideas of von Neumann and Murray revived much later in connection with Jordan operator al- gebras and the K-theory of C*-algebras. On the other hand, to review briefly some relatively new developments such as the classification of hyperfinite factors, the index theory of subfactors and elements of Jordan algebras. These developments are con- nected to the programs initiated by von Neumann himself. The last part of the paper is devoted to those topics of operator algebra theory which are closest to physical applications.

  • Introduction
    Introduction This book is meant to provide the tools necessary to begin doing research involving crossed product C∗-algebras. Crossed products of operator algebras can trace their origins back to statistical mechanics, where crossed products were called covariance algebras, and to the group measure space constructions of Murray and von Neu- mann. Now the subject is fully developed with a vast literature. Crossed products provide both interesting examples of C∗-algebras and are fascinating in their own ∗ ∗ right. Simply put, a crossed product C -algebra is a C -algebra Aα G built out of a C∗-algebra A and a locally compact group G of automorphisms of A. When the C∗-algebra A is trivial, that is, when A is the complex numbers, then the crossed product construction reduces to the group C∗-algebra of harmonic analysis. In fact, the subject of crossed product C∗-algebras was introduced to me as the harmonic analysis of functions on a locally compact group taking values in a C∗-algebra. This is a valuable analogy and still serves as motivation for me and for the approach in this book. The subject of crossed products is now too massive to be covered in a single volume. This is especially true for this treatment as I have tried to write at a level suitable for graduate students who are just beginning to search out research areas, and as I also want to make the treatment reasonably self-contained modulo a modest set of prerequisites (to be described below). As a result, it has been necessary to leave out many important topics.

  • The Strength of Borel Wadge Comparability
    The strength of Borel Wadge comparability Noam Greenberg Victoria University of Wellington 20th April 2021 Joint work with A. Day, M. Harrison-Trainor, and D. Turetsky Wadge comparability Wadge reducibility We work in Baire space !!. Definition Let A; B Ď !!. We say that A is Wadge reducible to B (and write A ¤W B) if A is a continuous pre-image of B: for some continuous function f : !! Ñ !!, x P A ô fpxq P B: This gives rise to Wadge equivalence and Wadge degrees. Wadge comparability The Wadge degrees of Borel sets are almost a linear ordering: Theorem (Wadge comparability, c. 1972) For any two Borel sets A and B, either § A ¤W B, or A § B ¤W A . Further facts on Wadge degrees of Borel sets: § They are well-founded (Martin and Monk); § They alternate between self-dual and non self-dual degrees; § 0 The rank of the ∆2 sets is !1, other ranks given by base-!1 Veblen ordinals. The Wadge game Wadge comparability is usually proved by applying determinacy to the game GpA; Bq: § Player I chooses x P !!; § Player II chooses y P !!; § Player II wins iff x P A ô y P B. A winning strategy for Player II gives a Wadge reduction of A to B; a winning strategy for player I gives a Wadge reduction of B to AA. Hence, AD implies Wadge comparability of all sets. Wadge comparability and determinacy § 1 1 Π1 determinacy is equivalent to Wadge comparability of Π1 sets (Harrington 1978); § 1 1 Π2 determinacy is equivalent to Wadge comparability of Π2 sets (Hjorth 1996).
