We introduce weakenings of two of the more prominent open problems in the classification of C*-algebras, namely the quasidiagonality problem and the UCT problem. We show that a positive solution of the conjunction of the two weaker problems implies a positive solution of the original quasidiagonality problem as well as allows us to give a local, finitary criteria for the MF problem, which asks whether every stably finite C*-algebra is MF.

An ATAI (or ATAF, respectively) algebra, introduced in [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404] (or in [X. C. Fang, The classification of certain non-simple C*-algebras of tracial rank zero, J. Funct. Anal. 256 (2009) 3861–3891], respectively) is an inductive limit [Formula: see text], where each [Formula: see text] is a simple separable nuclear TAI (or TAF) C*-algebra with UCT property. In [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404], the second author classified all ATAI algebras by an invariant consisting orderd total [Formula: see text]-theory and tracial state spaces of cut down algebras under an extra restriction that all element in [Formula: see text] are torsion. In this paper, we remove this restriction, and obtained the classification for all ATAI algebras with the Hausdorffized algebraic [Formula: see text]-group as an addition to the invariant used in [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404]. The theorem is proved by reducing the class to the classification theorem of [Formula: see text] algebras with ideal property which is done in [G. Gong, C. Jiang and L. Li, A classification of inductive limit C*-algebras with ideal property, preprint (2016), arXiv:1607.07681]. Our theorem generalizes the main theorem of [X. C. Fang, The classification of certain non-simple C*-algebras of tracial rank zero, J. Funct. Anal. 256 (2009) 3861–3891], [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404] (see Corollary 4.3).

AbstractA subset ${\mathcal{X}}$ of a C*-algebra ${\mathcal{A}}$ is called irredundant if no $A\in {\mathcal{X}}$ belongs to the C*-subalgebra of ${\mathcal{A}}$ generated by ${\mathcal{X}}\setminus \{A\}$. Separable C*-algebras cannot have uncountable irredundant sets and all members of many classes of nonseparable C*-algebras, e.g., infinite dimensional von Neumann algebras have irredundant sets of cardinality continuum.There exists a considerable literature showing that the question whether every AF commutative nonseparable C*-algebra has an uncountable irredundant set is sensitive to additional set-theoretic axioms, and we investigate here the noncommutative case.Assuming $\diamondsuit$ (an additional axiom stronger than the continuum hypothesis), we prove that there is an AF C*-subalgebra of ${\mathcal{B}}(\ell _{2})$ of density $2^{\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}}=\unicode[STIX]{x1D714}_{1}$ with no nonseparable commutative C*-subalgebra and with no uncountable irredundant set. On the other hand we also prove that it is consistent that every discrete collection of operators in ${\mathcal{B}}(\ell _{2})$ of cardinality continuum contains an irredundant subcollection of cardinality continuum.Other partial results and more open problems are presented.

AbstractLet A be a simple C*-algebra with real rank zero, stable rank one and weakly unperforated K0(A) of countable rank. We show that a monomorphism Φ: C(S2) → A can be approximated pointwise by homomorphisms from C(S2) into A with finite dimensional range if and only if certain index vanishes. In particular,we show that every homomorphism ϕ from C(S2) into a UHF-algebra can be approximated pointwise by homomorphisms from C(S2) into the UHF-algebra with finite dimensional range.As an application, we show that if A is a simple C*-algebra of real rank zero and is an inductive limit of matrices over C(S2) then A is an AF-algebra. Similar results for tori are also obtained. Classification of Hom (C(X), A) for lower dimensional spaces is also studied.

Tracial Rokhlin Property

AbstractWe introduce the tracial Rokhlin property for a conditional expectation for an inclusion of unital C*-algebras P ⊂ A with index finite, and show that an action α from a finite group G on a simple unital C*- algebra A has the tracial Rokhlin property in the sense of N. C. Phillips if and only if the canonical conditional expectation E: A → AG has the tracial Rokhlin property. Let be a class of infinite dimensional stably finite separable unital C*-algebras that is closed under the following conditions:(1) If A ∊ and B ≅ A, then B ∊ .(2) If A ∊ and n ∊ ℕ, then Mn(A) ∊ .(3) If A ∊ and p ∊ A is a nonzero projection, then pAp ∊ .Suppose that any C*-algebra in is weakly semiprojective. We prove that if A is a local tracial -algebra in the sense of Fan and Fang and a conditional expectation E: A → P is of index-finite type with the tracial Rokhlin property, then P is a unital local tracial -algebra.The main result is that if A is simple, separable, unital nuclear, Jiang–Su absorbing and E: A → P has the tracial Rokhlin property, then P is Jiang–Su absorbing. As an application, when an action α from a finite group G on a simple unital C*-algebra A has the tracial Rokhlin property, then for any subgroup H of G the fixed point algebra AH and the crossed product algebra H is Jiang–Su absorbing. We also show that the strict comparison property for a Cuntz semigroup W(A) is hereditary to W(P) if A is simple, separable, exact, unital, and E: A → P has the tracial Rokhlin property.

We study homeomorphisms of a Cantor set with $k$ ( $k<+\infty$ ) minimal invariant closed (but not open) subsets; we also study crossed product C*-algebras associated to these Cantor systems and certain of their orbit-cut sub-C*-algebras. In the case where $k\geq 2$ , the crossed product C*-algebra is stably finite, has stable rank 2, and has real rank 0 if in addition $(X,\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E})$ is aperiodic. The image of the index map is connected to certain directed graphs arising from the Bratteli–Vershik–Kakutani model of the Cantor system. Using this, it is shown that the ideal of the Bratteli diagram (of the Bratteli–Vershik–Kakutani model) must have at least $k$ vertices at each level, and the image of the index map must consist of infinitesimals.

Stable Classification

Let X be an infinite compact metric space, α : X → X a minimal homeomorphism, u the unitary that implements α in the transformation group C*-algebra C(X) ⋊α ℤ, and [Formula: see text] a class of separable nuclear C*-algebras that contains all unital hereditary C*-subalgebras of C*-algebras in [Formula: see text]. Motivated by the success of tracial approximation by finite dimensional C*-algebras as an abstract characterization of classifiable C*-algebras and the idea that classification results for C*-algebras tensored with UHF algebras can be used to derive classification results up to tensoring with the Jiang-Su algebra [Formula: see text], we prove that (C(X) ⋊α ℤ) ⊗ Mq∞ is tracially approximately [Formula: see text] if there exists a y ∈ X such that the C*-subalgebra (C*(C(X), uC0(X\{y}))) ⊗ Mq∞ is tracially approximately [Formula: see text]. If the class [Formula: see text] consists of finite dimensional C*-algebras, this can be used to deduce classification up to tensoring with [Formula: see text] for C*-algebras associated to minimal dynamical systems where projections separate tracial states. This is done without making any assumptions on the real rank or stable rank of either C(X) ⋊α ℤ or C*(C(X), uC0(X\{y})), nor on the dimension of X. The result is a key step in the classification of C*-algebras associated to uniquely ergodic minimal dynamical systems by their ordered K-groups. It also sets the stage to provide further classification results for those C*-algebras of minimal dynamical systems where projections do not necessarily separate traces.

Abstract We study the connection between the UCT problem and Cartan subalgebras in C*-algebras. The UCT problem asks whether every separable nuclear C*-algebra satisfies the UCT, i.e., a noncommutative analogue of the classical universal coefficient theorem from algebraic topology. This UCT problem is one of the remaining major open questions in the structure and classification theory of simple nuclear C*-algebras. Since the class of separable nuclear C*-algebras is closed under crossed products by finite groups, it is a natural and important task to understand the behaviour of the UCT under such crossed products. We make a contribution towards a better understanding by showing that for certain approximately inner actions of finite cyclic groups on UCT Kirchberg algebras, the crossed products satisfy the UCT if and only if we can find Cartan subalgebras which are invariant under the actions of our finite cyclic groups. We also show that the class of actions we are able to treat is big enough to characterize the UCT problem, in the sense that every such action (even on a particular Kirchberg algebra, namely the Cuntz algebra $$\mathcal O_2$$ O 2 ) leads to a crossed product satisfying the UCT if and only if every separable nuclear C*-algebra satisfies the UCT. Our results rely on a new construction of Cartan subalgebras in certain inductive limit C*-algebras. This new tool turns out to be of independent interest. For instance, among other things, the second author has used it to construct Cartan subalgebras in all classifiable unital stably finite C*-algebras.

We present and study $C^*$-algebras generated by "periodic weighted creation operators" on the Fock space associated with an automorphism $\alpha$ on a $C^*$-algebra $A$. These algebras can be viewed as generalized Bunce-Deddens algebras associated with the automorphism and can be written as a certain direct limit. We prove a crossed product presentation for such an algebra and find a necessary and sufficient condition for it to be simple. In the case where the automorphism is induced by an irrational rotation (on C(T)) we compute the K-theory groups and obtain a complete classification of these algebras.

Suppose that A is a C*-algebra for which [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the Jiang–Su algebra: a unital, simple, stably finite, separable, nuclear, infinite-dimensional C*-algebra with the same Elliott invariant as the complex numbers. We show that: (i) The Cuntz semigroup W(A) of equivalence classes of positive elements in matrix algebras over A is almost unperforated. (ii) If A is exact, then A is purely infinite if and only if A is traceless. (iii) If A is separable and nuclear, then [Formula: see text] if and only if A is traceless. (iv) If A is simple and unital, then the stable rank of A is one if and only if A is finite. We also characterize when A is of real rank zero.

Cloud computing cyber security is a subject that has been in top flight for a long period and even in near future. However, cloud computing permit to stock up a huge number of data in the cloud stockage, and allow the user to pay per utilization from anywhere via any terminal equipment. Among the major issues related to Cloud Computing security, we can mention data security, denial of service attacks, confidentiality, availability, and data integrity. This paper is dedicated to a taxonomic classification study of cloud computing cyber-security. With the main objective to identify the main challenges and issues in this field, the different approaches and solutions proposed to address them and the open problems that need to be addressed.
