Abstract. We prove Cuntz-Krieger and graded uniqueness theorems for Steinberg algebras. We also show that a Steinberg algebra is basically simple if and only if its associated groupoid is both effective and minimal. Finally we use results of Steinberg to characterise the center of Steinberg algebras associated to minimal groupoids.
We consider the ideal structure of Steinberg algebras over a commutative ring with identity. We focus on Hausdorff groupoids that are strongly effective in the sense that their reductions to closed subspaces of their unit spaces are all effective. For such a groupoid, we completely describe the ideal lattice of the associated Steinberg algebra over any commutative ring with identity. Our results are new even for the special case of Leavitt path algebras; so we describe explicitly what they say in this context, and give two concrete examples.
We compute the group of Morita auto-equivalences of the even parts of the ADE subfactors, and Galois conjugates. To achieve this we study the braided auto-equivalences of the Drinfeld centres of these categories. We give planar algebra presentations for each of these Drinfeld centres, which we leverage to obtain information about the braided auto-equivalences of the corresponding categories. We also perform the same calculations for the fusion categories constructed from the full ADE subfactors.Of particular interest, the even part of the D10 subfactor is shown to have Brauer-Picard group S3 × S3. We develop combinatorial arguments to compute the underlying algebra objects of these invertible bimodules.
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.
