Inverse Semigroup C*-Algebras Associated with Left Cancellative Semigroups

Abstract: To each discrete left cancellative semigroup S one may associate an inverse semigroup I l (S), often called the left inverse hull of S. We show how the full and reduced C * -algebras of I l (S) are related to the full and reduced semigroup C * -algebras for S, recently introduced by Li, and give conditions ensuring that these algebras are isomorphic. Our picture provides an enhanced understanding of Li's algebras.

“…for s, t ∈ S. It follows that C * (S) admits a dense spanning set v s v * t with s, t ∈ S, see [Nor14,BLS18]. We let e sS denote the projection v s v * s in C * (S), for each s ∈ S.…”

“…and tractable properties. A general construction of full and reduced C * -algebras for left cancellative monoids was introduced by Li, [Li12], and soon fundamental questions about the interplay between nuclearity of the C * -algebra and amenability of the monoid or its left inverse hull were raised, see [Li13,Nor14]. Subsequent work on semigroup C *algebras that centered on computing K-theory revealed impressively rich connections to number theory, see [Li14,KT], and geometric group theory, see [ELR16].…”

“…See [26] for the abstract construction of C * (S) valid for arbitrary left cancellative semigroups, and [1] or [29] for the case of right LCM semigroups. When S is a right LCM semigroup, [2,Corollary 7.11] implies that C * (S) is isomorphic to the Nica-Toeplitz algebra N T (X) for the compactly aligned product system X over S with fibers X s ∼ = C for all s ∈ S. It is therefore natural to ask if Theorem 2.19 can be applied.…”
