We present two types of result for approximately inner one-parameter automorphism groups (referred to as AI flows hereafter) of separable C*-algebras. First, if there is an irreducible representation π of a separable C*-algebra A such that π(A) does not contain non-zero compact operators, then there is an AI flow α such that π is α-covariant and α is far from uniformly continuous in the sense that α induces a flow on π(A) which has full Connes spectrum. Second, if α is an AI flow on a separable C*-algebra A and π is an α-covariant irreducible representation, then we can choose a sequence (hn) of self-adjoint elements in A such that αt is the limit of inner flows Ad eithn and the sequence π(eithn) of one-parameter unitary groups (referred to as unitary flows hereafter) converges to a unitary flow which implements α in π. This latter result will be extended to cover the case of weakly inner type I representations. In passing we shall also show that if two representations of a separable simple C*-algebra on a separable Hilbert space generate the same von Neumann algebra of type I, then there is an approximately inner automorphism which sends one into the other up to equivalence.

We introduce a class of generalized universal irrational rotation C*-algebras Aθ, γ = C*(x, w) which is characterized by the relations w*w = ww* = 1, x*x = γ(w), xx* = γ(e-2πiθw), and xw = e-2πiθwx, where θ is an irrational number and γ(z) ∈ C(𝕋) is a positive function. We characterize tracial linear functionals, simplicity, and K-groups of Aθ, γ in terms of zero points of γ(z). We show that if Aθ, γ is simple then Aθ, γ is an A𝕋-algebra of real rank zero. We classify Aθ, γ in terms of θ and zero points of γ(z). Let Aθ = C*(u, v) be the universal irrational rotation C*-algebra with vu = e2πiθuv. Then C*(u + v) ≅ Aθ,|1+z|2. As an application, we show that C*(u + v) is a proper simple C*-subalgebra of Aθ which has a unique trace, K1(C*(u + v)) ≅ ℤ, and there is an order isomorphism of K0(C*(u + v)) onto ℤ + ℤθ. Moreover, C*(u + v) is a unital simple A𝕋-algebra of real rank zero. We also show that u + v is strongly irreducible relative to the hyperfinite type II 1 factor.

The noncommutative Fourier transform $\sigma (U)=V^{-1}$, $\sigma (V)=U$ of the irrational rotation C*-algebra $A_\theta $ (generated by canonical unitaries $U$, $V$ satisfying $VU = e^{2\pi i\theta } UV$) is shown to have the following K-inductive structure (for a concrete class of irrational parameters, containing dense $G_\delta $'s). There are approximately central matrix projections $e_1$, $e_2$, $f$ that are σ-invariant and which form a partition of unity in $K_0$ of the fixed-point orbifold $A_\theta ^\sigma $, where $f$ has the form $f = g+\sigma (g) +\sigma ^2(g)+\sigma ^3(g)$, and where $g$ is an approximately central matrix projection as well.

Explicit automorphisms of the irrational rotation algebra are constructed which are associated with the two 2 × 2 diagonal integer matrices of determinant −1. The fixed point algebra of the product of these two automorphisms is shown to be isomorphic to the fixed point algebra of the flip.

Let $R$ be the hyperfinite $\mathrm {II}_1$ factor and let $u$, $v$ be two generators of $R$ such that $u^*u=v^*v=1$ and $vu=e^{2\pi i\theta } uv$ for an irrational number $\theta$. In this paper we study the class of operators $uf(v)$, where $f$ is a bounded Lebesgue measurable function on the unit circle $S^1$. We calculate the spectrum and Brown spectrum of operators $uf(v)$, and study the invariant subspace problem of such operators relative to $R$. We show that under general assumptions the von Neumann algebra generated by $uf(v)$ is an irreducible subfactor of $R$ with index $n$ for some natural number $n$, and the $C^*$-algebra generated by $uf(v)$ and the identity operator is a generalized universal irrational rotation $C^*$-algebra.

AbstractThe notion of families of quantum invertible maps (C*–algebra homomorphisms satisfying Podleś condition) is employed to strengthen and reinterpret several results concerning universal quantum groups acting on finite quantum spaces. In particular, Wang's quantum automorphism groups are shown to be universal with respect to quantum families of invertible maps. Further, the construction of the Hopf image of Banica and Bichon is phrased in purely analytic language and employed to define the quantum subgroup generated by a family of quantum subgroups or, more generally, a family of quantum invertible maps.
