Abstract:
We study some general properties of tracial $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. In the first part, we consider Dixmier type approximation theorem and characterize symmetric amenability for $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras. In the second part, we consider continuous bundles of tracial von Neumann algebras and classify some of them.

Keywords: Dixmier approximation, symmetric amenability, continuous bundles of von Neumann algebras.
