Abstract
The C-algebra associated to a topological groupoid can be viewed as a crossed product: by the partial action of the inverse semigroup of bisections on the continuous functions on the unit space. Analogously we can consider inverse semigroup crossed products of arbitrary C-algebras. For certain classes of Hausdorff groupoids there is a known dichotomy: the groupoid C*-algebra is either stably finite or purely infinite. Allowing for inverse semigroup crossed products introduces non-trivial obstacles to extending these results. We will outline the crossed product construction and present work towards the purely infinite-stably finite dichotomy. Joint work with Becky Armstrong, Lisa Clark, Astrid an Huef and Diego Martฤฑฬnez.
