Abstract Let $\phi :X\to X$ be a homeomorphism of a compact metric space X. For any continuous function $F:X\to \mathbb {R}$ there is a one-parameter group $\alpha ^{F}$ of automorphisms (or a flow) on the crossed product $C^*$ -algebra $C(X)\rtimes _{\phi }\mathbb {Z}$ defined such that $\alpha ^{F}_{t}(fU)=fUe^{-itF}$ when $f \in C(X)$ and U is the canonical unitary in the construction of the crossed product. In this paper we study the Kubo--Martin--Schwinger (KMS) states for these flows by developing an intimate relation to the ergodic theory of non-singular transformations and show that the structure of KMS states can be very rich and complicated. Our results are complete concerning the set of possible inverse temperatures; in particular, we show that when $C(X) \rtimes _{\phi } \mathbb Z$ is simple this set is either $\{0\}$ or the whole line $\mathbb R$ .

We provide a detailed study of actions of the integers on compact quantum metric spaces, which includes general criteria ensuring that the associated crossed product algebra is again a compact quantum metric space in a natural way. Moreover, we provide a flexible set of assumptions ensuring that a continuous family of $\ast$ -automorphisms of a compact quantum metric space yields a field of crossed product algebras which varies continuously in Rieffel’s quantum Gromov–Hausdorff distance. Finally, we show how our results apply to continuous families of Lip-isometric actions on compact quantum metric spaces and to families of diffeomorphisms of compact Riemannian manifolds which vary continuously in the Whitney $C^{1}$ -topology.

AbstractThe investigations of the smooth points in the spaces of continuous function were started by Banach in 1932 considering function space $$\mathcal {C}(\Omega )$$ C ( Ω ) . Singer and Sundaresan extended the result of Banach to the space of vector valued continuous functions $$\mathcal {C}(\mathcal {T},E)$$ C ( T , E ) , where $$\mathcal {T}$$ T is a compact metric space. The aim of this paper is to present a description of semi-smooth points in spaces of continuous functions $$\mathcal {C}_0(\mathcal {T},E)$$ C 0 ( T , E ) (instead of smooth points). Moreover, we also find necessary and sufficient condition for semi-smoothness in the general case.

If X is a dense subspace of Y, much is known about the question of when every bounded continuous real-valued function on X extends to a continuous function on Y. Indeed, this is one of the central topics of [5]. In this paper we are interested in the opposite question: When are there continuous bounded real-valued functions on X which extend to no point of Y – X? (Of course, we cannot hope that every function on X fails to extend since the restrictions to X of continuous functions on Y extend to Y.) In this paper, we show that if Y is a compact metric space and if X is a dense subset of Y, then X admits a bounded continuous function which extends to no point of Y – X if and only if X is completely metrizable. We also show that for certain spaces Y and dense subsets X, the set of bounded functions on X which extend to a point of Y – X form a first category subset of C*(X).

AbstractIf X is a compact metric space and T a homeomorphism of X we say (X, T) has almost minimal power joinings (AMPJ) if there is a dense GδX* in X such that for each finite set k, x∈(X*)k and l:k → ℤ−{0}, the orbit closure cl {} is a product of off-diagonals (POOD) on Xk. By an offdiagonal on Xk′, k′k we mean a set of the form (⊗,j∈k′Tm(j))Δ, Δ the diagonal in Xk′, m:k′→ℤ any function, and by a POOD on Xk we mean that k is split into subsets k′, on each Xk′ we put an off-diagonal and then we take the product of these.We show that examples of AMPJ exist and that this definition leads to a theory completely analogous to Rudolph's theory of minimal self-joinings in ergodic theory. In particular if (X, T) has AMPJ the automorphism group of T is {Tn}, T has only almost 1-1 factors (other than the trivial one) and the automorphism group and factors of ⊕i ∊ kT, k finite or countably infinite, can be very explicitly described. We also discuss ℝ-actions.

AbstractGiven a semigroup of surjective local homeomorphisms on a compact space X we consider the corresponding semigroup of *-endomorphisms on C(X) and discuss the possibility of extending it to an interaction group, a concept recently introduced by the first named author. We also define a transformation groupoid whose C*-algebra turns out to be isomorphic to the crossed product algebra for the interaction group. Several examples are considered, including one which gives rise to a slightly different construction and should be interpreted as being the C*-algebra of a certain polymorphism.

AbstractLet $\Omega $ be a class of unital $C^*$-algebras. Then any simple unital $C^*$-algebra $A\in \mathrm {TA}(\mathrm {TA}\Omega )$ is a $\mathrm {TA}\Omega $ algebra. Let $A\in \mathrm {TA}\Omega $ be an infinite-dimensional $\alpha $-simple unital $C^*$-algebra with the property SP. Suppose that $\alpha :G\to \mathrm {Aut}(A)$ is an action of a finite group $G$ on $A$ which has a certain non-simple tracial Rokhlin property. Then the crossed product algebra $C^*(G,A,\alpha )$ belongs to $\mathrm {TA}\Omega $.

A construction is given relating a finitely generated free-product of cyclic groups with a certain Cuntz-Krieger algebra, generalizing the relation between the Choi algebra and 02. It is shown that a certain boundary action of such a group yields a Cuntz-Krieger algebra by the crossed-product construction. Certain compact convex spaces of completely positive mappings associated to a crossed-product algebra are introduced. These are used to generalize a problem of J. Anderson regarding the representation theory of the Choi algebra. An explicit computation of these spaces for the crossed products under study yields a negative answer to this problem.

In this paper we prove that any ergodic measurably distal system can be realized as a minimal topologically distal system with an invariant Borel measure of full support. The proof depends upon a theorem stating that every measurable function from a measurable system with its base space being a compact metric space to a connected compact group is cohomologous to a continuous function.

Let [Formula: see text] be an infinite compact metric space with finite covering dimension and let [Formula: see text] be two minimal homeomorphisms. We prove that the crossed product [Formula: see text]-algebras [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are isomorphic if and only if they have isomorphic Elliott invariant. In a more general setting, we show that if [Formula: see text] is an infinite compact metric space and if [Formula: see text] is a minimal homeomorphism such that [Formula: see text] has mean dimension zero, then the tensor product of the crossed product with a UHF-algebra of infinite type has generalized tracial rank at most one. This implies that the crossed product is in a classifiable class of amenable simple [Formula: see text]-algebras.
