We introduce the notion of the crossed product A X Z of a C *algebra A by a Hilbert C * -bimodule X. It is shown that given a C * -algebra B which carries a semi-saturated action of the circle group (in the sense that B is generated by the spectral subspaces B 0 and B 1 ), then B is isomorphic to the crossed product B 0 B 1 Z. We then present our main result, in which we show that the crossed products A X Z and B Y Z are strongly Morita equivalent to each other, provided that A and B are strongly Morita equivalent under an imprimitivity bimodule M satisfying X ⊗ A M M ⊗ B Y as A − B Hilbert C * -bimodules. We also present a six-term exact sequence for K-groups of crossed products by Hilbert C * -bimodules.
A study of Hilbert C*-bimodules over commutative C*-algebras is carried out and used to establish a sufficient condition for two quantum Heisenberg manifolds to be isomorphic.
Given a correspondence X over a C * -algebra A, we construct a C * -algebra A X ∞ and a Hilbert C * -bimodule X∞ over A X ∞ such that the augmented Cuntz-Pimsner C * -algebras ÕX and the crossed product A X ∞ ⋊X∞ are isomorphic. This construction enables us to establish a condition for two augmented Cuntz-Pimsner C * -algebras to be Morita equivalent.
Abstract. With each Fell bundle over a discrete group G we associate a partial action of G on the spectrum of the unit fiber. We discuss the ideal structure of the corresponding full and reduced cross-sectional C * -algebras in terms of the dynamics of this partial action.
Let G and H be two locally compact groups acting on a C*-algebra A by commuting actions λ and σ. We construct an action on A × λ G out of σ and a unitary 2-cocycle u. For A commutative, and free and proper actions λ and σ, we show that if the roles of λ and σ are reversed, and u is replaced by u * , then the corresponding generalized fixed-point algebras, in the sense of Rieffel, are strong-Morita equivalent. We apply this result to the computation of the K-theory of quantum Heisenberg manifolds. 1991 MR Classification: Primary 46L55; Secondary 46L80, 46L87.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
