Full regularity for a c*-algebra of the canonical commutation relations

TL;DR: In this paper, a C*-algebra which can reproduce the canonical commutation relations of a countably dimensional symplectic space (S, B) and its representation set is exactly the full set of regular representations of the CCRs is constructed.

Equivariant KK-Theory and C*-Extensions

Klaus Thomsen
- 01 Mar 2000 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a description of equivariant KK-theory in terms of extensions of C∗-algebras has been given, which is based on an extension of the original KK theory.

E-theory for C⁎-algebras over topological spaces

TL;DR: In this article, the authors define E-theory for separable C ⁎ -algebras over second countable topological spaces and establish its basic properties, including an approximation theorem that relates the Etheory over a general space to the e-theories over finite approximations to this space.

K-Theory for Real C*-algebras via Unitary Elements with Symmetries

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that all eight KO groups for a real C*-algebra can be constructed from homotopy classes of unitary matrices that respect a variety of symmetries.

Localizing the Elliott conjecture at strongly self-absorbing C*-algebras

TL;DR: In this paper, the concept of localizing the Elliott conjecture at strongly self-absorbing C*-algebras was introduced, and the class of separable, unital, simple, simple and simple C *-algesas with locally finite decomposition rank and UCT, and for which projections separate traces, satisfies the conjecture localized at the Jiang-Su algebra Z.
