Research Framework

In the past 50 years, a major trend in Operator Theory focuses on the use of operator algebras for encoding geometrical and topological objects. Operator algebras may be considered as algebras of (bounded in norm) infinite matrices with complex entries. A central aspect of the program is to explore the passage from intrinsic properties of the object into properties of the associated operator algebras, and use invariants of the latter to classify the former. There are two interrelated questions that orient our study: 

Examples of examined objects so far include tilings, tangles, graphs, dynamical systems, groups, semigroups, varieties, homogeneous ideals, and stochastic matrices. My research so far incorporates operator algebras (both selfadjoint and non-selfadjoint) in terms of: representation theory, dilation theory, ideal structure, KMS-states theory, C*-envelopes, reflexivity, and hyperrigidity; for objects related to: C*-correspondences, product systems, subproduct systems, semigroup actions on operator algebras, and homogeneous ideals.

Also see the Corrigendum to "C*-algebras and equivalences for C*-correspondences" that appeared at Journal of Functional Analysis 283:6 (2022), 109564. The proof of Theorem 5.8 gives a weaker version of shift equivalence than the one claimed in the statement. We show where the problem lies, adjust the main results --which are enough to tackle the two conjectures as they appear in the introduction-- and we make connections with results in the literature after the original paper appeared.
