Summary: We study the problem of determining when the reduced twisted group \(C^{\ast}\)-algebra associated with a discrete group \(G\) is simple and/or has a unique tracial state, and present new sufficient conditions for this to hold. One of our main tools is a combinatorial property, that we call the relative Kleppner condition, which ensures that a quotient group \(G/H\) acts by freely acting automorphisms on the twisted group von Neumann algebra associated to a normal subgroup \(H\). We apply our results to different types of groups, e.g., wreath products and Baumslag-Solitar groups.
