AbstractLet Γ be an Ã2subgroup of PGL3(), whereis a local field with residue field of orderq. The module of coinvariantsC(,ℤ)Γis shown to be finite, whereis the projective plane over. If the group Γ is of Tits type and ifq≢ 1 (mod 3) then the exact value of the order of the class [1]K0in the K-theory of the (full) crossed productC*-algebraC(Ω) ⋊ Γ is determined, where Ω is the Furstenberg boundary of PGL3(). For groups of Tits type, this verifies a conjecture of G. Robertson and T. Steger.
