Dynamics of compact quantum metric spaces (1904.13278v2)

Abstract: We provide a detailed study of actions of the integers on compact quantum metric spaces, which includes general criteria ensuring that the associated crossed product algebra is again a compact quantum metric space in a natural way. We moreover provide a flexible set of assumptions ensuring that a continuous family of *-automorphisms of a compact quantum metric space, yields a field of crossed product algebras which varies continuously in Rieffel's quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance. Lastly we show how our results apply to continuous families of Lip-isometric actions on compact quantum metric spaces and to families of diffeomorphisms of compact Riemannian manifolds which vary continuously in the Whitney C^1-topology.
