### Operator algebras associated to modules over an integral domain

Benton Duncan

#### Abstract

We use the Fock semicrossed product to define an operator algebra associated to a module over an integral domain. We consider the $C^*$-envelope of the semicrossed product, and then consider properties of these algebras as models for studying general semicrossed products.
