Abstract: Let $Gamma$ be a discrete group acting freely via homeomorphisms on the compact Hausdorff space $X$ and let $C(X)time{s}_{e}taGamma$ be the completion of the convolution algebra $C_c(Gamma,C(X))$ with respect to a $C^{\ast }$-norm $eta$. A non-zero ideal $JunlhdC(X)time{s}_{e}taGamma$ is exotic if $JcapC(X)=0$. We show that exotic ideals are present whenever $Gamma$ is non-amenable and there is an invariant probability measure on $X$. This fact, along with the recent theory of exotic crossed product functors, allows us to provide answers to two questions of K. Thomsen. Using the Koopman representation and a recent theorem of Elek, we show that when $Gamma$ is a countably-infinite group having property (T) and $X$ is the Cantor set, there exists a free and minimal action of $Gamma$ on $X$ and a $C^{\ast }$-norm $eta$ on $C_c(Gamma,C(X))$ such that $C(X)time{s}_{e}taGamma$ contains the compact operators as an exotic ideal. We use this example to provide a positive answer to a question of A. Katavolos and V. Paulsen. The opaque and grey ideals in $C(X)time{s}_{e}taGamma$ have trivial intersection with $C(X)$, and a result from arXiv:1901.09683 shows they coincide when the action of $Gamma$ is free, however the problem of whether these ideals can be non-zero was left unresolved. We present an example of a free action of $Gamma$ on a compact Hausdorff space $X$ along with a $C^{\ast }$-norm $eta$ for which these ideals are non-trivial, in particular, they are exotic ideals.
