Homomorphisms from AH-algebras
Let [Formula: see text] be a general unital AH-algebra and let [Formula: see text] be a unital simple [Formula: see text]-algebra with tracial rank at most one. Suppose that [Formula: see text] are two unital monomorphisms. We show that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are approximately unitarily equivalent if and only if [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are continuous affine maps from tracial state space [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] to faithful tracial state space [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] induced by [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], respectively, and [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are induced homomorphisms s from [Formula: see text] into [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the space of all real affine continuous functions on [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is the closure of the image of [Formula: see text] in the affine space [Formula: see text]. In particular, the above holds for [Formula: see text], the algebra of continuous functions on a compact metric space. An approximate version of this is also obtained. We also show that, given a triple of compatible elements [Formula: see text], an affine map [Formula: see text] and a homomorphisms [Formula: see text], there exists a unital monomorphism [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].
