Abstract: Given a commensurated subgroup $Lambda$ of a group $Gamma$, we completely characterize when the inclusion $LambdaleqGamma$ is $C^{\ast }$-irreducible and provide new examples of such inclusions. In particular, we obtain that $mPSL(n,mathbbZ)leqmPGL(n,mathbbQ)$ is $C^{\ast }$-irreducible for any $ninmathbbN$, and that the inclusion of a $C^{\ast }$-simple group into its abstract commensurator is $C^{\ast }$-irreducible. The main ingredient that we use is the fact that the action of a commensurated subgroup $LambdaleqGamma$ on its Furstenberg boundary $partia{l}_{F}Lambda$ can be extended in a unique way to an action of $Gamma$ on $partia{l}_{F}Lambda$. Finally, we also investigate the counterpart of this extension result for the universal minimal proximal space of a group.
