 Project objective

Recently, we discovered that the notion of Cartan subalgebras builds bridges between C*-algebras, topological dynamics, and geometric group theory. The goal of this research project is to develop our understanding of this concept in order to attack the following major open questions:

I. The UCT question II. The Baum-Connes conjecture III. The conjugacy problem for topological shifts IV. Quasi-isometry rigidity for polycyclic groups

UCT stands for Universal Coefficient Theorem and is a crucial ingredient in classification. I want to make progress on the open question whether sufficiently regular C*-algebras satisfy the UCT, taking my joint work with Barlak as a starting point. The Baum-Connes conjecture predicts a K-theory formula for group C*-algebras which has far-reaching applications in geometry and algebra as it implies open conjectures of Novikov and Kaplansky. My new approach to II will be based on Cartan subalgebras and the notion of independent resolutions due to Norling and myself. Problem III asks for algorithms deciding which shifts are topologically conjugate. It has driven a lot of research in symbolic dynamics. Conjecture IV asserts that every group quasi-isometric to a polycyclic group must already be virtually polycyclic. A solution would be a milestone in our understanding of solvable Lie groups. To attack III and IV, I want to develop the new notion of continuous orbit equivalence which (as I recently showed) is closely related to Cartan subalgebras.

Problems I to IV address important challenges, so that any progress will result in a major breakthrough. On top of that, my project will initiate new interactions between several mathematical areas. It is exactly the right time to develop the proposed research programme as it takes up recent breakthroughs in classification of C*-algebras, orbit equivalence for Cantor minimal systems, and measured group theory, where measure-theoretic analogues of our key concepts have been highly successful.

Are you the coordinator (or a participant) of this project? Plaese send me more information about the "IGOC" project.

For instance: the website url (it has not provided by EU-opendata yet), the logo, a more detailed description of the project (in plain text as a rtf file or a word file), some pictures (as picture files, not embedded into any word file), twitter account, linkedin page, etc.

Send me an  email (fabio@fabiodisconzi.com) and I put them in your project's page as son as possible.

Thanks. And then put a link of this page into your project's website.
