Non-Commutative classifying spaces of groups via quasi-topologies and pro-$C^*$-algebras (2304.14681v1)
Abstract: For a completely Hausdorff quasi-topological group $G$, we construct a universal pro-$C*$-algebra $C(E+G)$ as the non-commutative geometer's analogue of the total space $EG$ of the classifying principal $G$-bundle $EG\to BG$. The pro-$C*$-algebra $C(EG)$ of (possibly unbounded) continuous functions on $EG$ is then recoverable as the abelianization of $C(E+G)$. Along the way, we develop various aspects of the theory of quasi-topological $G$-spaces and $G$-pro-$C*$-algebras.
