AbstractThis paper is comprised of two related parts. First we discuss which k-graph algebras have faithful traces. We characterise the existence of a faithful semifinite lower-semicontinuous gauge-invariant trace on C* (Λ) in terms of the existence of a faithful graph trace on Λ.Second, for k-graphs with faithful gauge invariant trace, we construct a smooth (k,∞)-summable semifinite spectral triple. We use the semifinite local index theorem to compute the pairing with K-theory. This numerical pairing can be obtained by applying the trace to a KK-pairing with values in the K-theory of the fixed point algebra of the Tk action. As with graph algebras, the index pairing is an invariant for a finer structure than the isomorphism class of the algebra.

We give applications of the gauge-invariant uniqueness theorem, which states that the Cuntz-Krieger algebras of directed graphs are characterised by the existence of a canonical action of . We classify the C*-algebras of higher order graphs, identify the C*-algebras of cartesian product graphs with a certain fixed point algebra and investigate a relation called elementary shift equivalence on graphs and its effect on the associated graph C*-algebras.

We show that one can define (p,∞)-summable spectral triples using degenerate metrics on smooth manifolds. Furthermore, these triples satisfy Connes–Moscovici's discrete and finite dimension spectrum hypothesis, allowing one to use the Local Index Theorem [1] to compute the pairing with K-theory. We demonstrate this with a concrete example.

We present and prove some results within the framework of Hilbert C*-systems [Formula: see text] with a compact group [Formula: see text]. We assume that the fixed point algebra [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] has a nontrivial center [Formula: see text] and its relative commutant w.r.t. ℱ coincides with [Formula: see text], i.e. we have [Formula: see text]. In this context we propose a generalization of the notion of an irreducible endomorphism and study the behaviour of such irreducibles w.r.t. [Formula: see text]. Finally, we give several characterizations of the stabilizer of [Formula: see text].

AbstractLet G be a metrizable compact group, A a separable C*-algebra, and α:G → Aut(A) a strongly continuous action. Provided that α satisfies the continuous Rokhlin property, we show that the property of satisfying the UCT in E-theory passes from Ato the crossed product C*-algebra A⋊α G and the ûxed point algebra Aα. This extends a similar result by Gardella for KK-theory in the case of unital C*-algebras but with a shorter and less technical proof. For circle actions on separable unital C*-algebras with the continuous Rokhlin property, we establish a connection between the Etheory equivalence class of A and that of its fixed point algebra Aα.
