Jean Renault: Groupoid correspondences and C*-correspondences

I will present a recent definition of correspondence for locally compact groupoids with Haar systems due to R. D. Holkar and based on previous work by M. Buneci and P. Stachura, which makes the groupoid C*-algebra construction a functor from the category of groupoids to the category of C*-algebras and implements many classical cases of induced representations. The case of Lie groupoids will be emphasized.

The lecture was held within the framework of the Hausdorff Trimester Program Non-commutative Geometry and its Applications. (17.09.2014)
