"Describing C*-algebras in terms of topological groupoids"

Unital abelian C*-algebras are well understood. They are necessarily isomorphic to C(X), the continuous functions on a compact Hausdorff space X. Studying the topological dynamics on $X$ gives rise to the study of crossed product C*-algebras: a class of relatively well understood of non-abelian operator algebras constructed from a dynamical system.
