Speaker: Sajad Sadeghi (Western) Title: "NCG Learning Seminar: Hecke C*-algebras" Room: MC 107 Abstract: In this lecture we first give some examples of states and GNS constructions. Then we introduce the reduced group C∗-algebra of a discrete group. Moreover, the Hecke pair (G,H) consisting of a group G and an almost normal subgroup H will be introduced. Indeed, a subgroup H of a group G is called almost normal if every double coset HgH can be written as a union of finite number of left cosets. Using Hecke pairs we introduce Hecke C∗-algebras as a generalization of group C∗-algebras. Finally we piont to the Bost-Connes pair and its Hecke C∗-algebra. | |
