Groupoid Crossed Products of Continuous-Trace C*-Algebras

Abstract: We show that if $(A,G,\alpha)$ is a groupoid dynamical system with $A$ continuous trace, then the crossed product $A\rtimes_{\alpha}G$ is Morita equivalent to the C*-algebra $C*(\underline G,\underline E)$ of a twist $\underline E$ over a groupoid $\underline G$ equivalent to $G$. This is a groupoid analogue of the well known result for the crossed product of a group acting on an elementary C*-algebra.
