The reduced twisted C*-algebra A of an étale groupoid G has a canonical abelian subalgebra D: functions on G's unit space. When G has no non-trivial abelian subgroupoids (i.e., G is principal), then D is in fact maximal abelian. Remarkable work by Kumjian shows that the tuple (A,D) allows us to reconstruct the underlying groupoid G and its twist uniquely; this uses that D is not only masa but even what is called a C*-diagonal. In this talk, I show that twisted C*-algebras of non-principal groupoids can also have such C*-diagonal subalgebras, arising from non-trivial abelian subgroupoids, and I will discuss the reconstructed principal twisted groupoid of Kumjian for such pairs of algebras.
