Abstract: Given an ample groupoid G with compact unit space, we study the canonical representation of the topological full group [[G]] in the full groupoid C∗-algebra C∗(G). In particular, we show that the image of this representation generates C∗(G) if and only if C∗(G) admits no tracial state. The techniques that we use include the notion of groups covering groupoids. As an application, we provide sufficient conditions for C∗-simplicity of certain topological full groups, including those associated with topologically free and minimal actions of non-amenable and countable groups on the Cantor set.
