"Boundaries and C*-simplicity of discrete groups and (maybe) more"

We are going to discuss the connection between the action of a discrete group on its Furstenberg boundary and C*-simplicity. To do so we will be looking at the papers by Kalantar & Kennedy (Boundaries of reduced C*-algebras of discrete groups) and Breuillard et al (C*-simplicity and the unique trace property for discrete groups).
