We construct and study C*-algebras associated with subshifts in symbolic dynamics as a generalization of Cuntz–Krieger algebras for topological Markov shifts. We prove some universal properties for the C*-algebras and give a criterion for them to be simple and purely infinite. We also present an example of a C*-algebra coming from a subshift which is not conjugate to a Markov shift.

AbstractWe are concerned with a unital separable nuclear purely infinite simple C*-algebra A satisfying UCT with a Rohlin flow, as a continuation of [12]. Our first result (which is independent of the Rohlin flow) is to characterize when two central projections in A are equivalent by a central partial isometry. Our second result shows that the K-theory of the central sequence algebra A′ ∩ Aω (for an ω ∈ βN\N) and its fixed point algebra under the flow are the same (incorporating the previous result). We will also complete and supplement the characterization result of the Rohlin property for flows stated in [12].

AbstractWe define the filtrated K-theory of a C*-algebra over a finite topological spaceXand explain how to construct a spectral sequence that computes the bivariant Kasparov theory overXin terms of filtrated K-theory.For finite spaces with a totally ordered lattice of open subsets, this spectral sequence becomes an exact sequence as in the Universal Coefficient Theorem, with the same consequences for classification. We also exhibit an example where filtrated K-theory is not yet a complete invariant. We describe two C*-algebras over a spaceXwith four points that have isomorphic filtrated K-theory without being KK(X)-equivalent. For this spaceX, we enrich filtrated K-theory by another K-theory functor to a complete invariant up to KK(X)-equivalence that satisfies a Universal Coefficient Theorem.

Abstract We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra A generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has decomposition rank at most 3. If, in addition, A satisfies the universal coefficient theorem, another string of deep results shows it is classifiable by its ordered K-theory and is approximately subhomogeneous. We observe that all C*-algebras generated by faithful irreducible representations of finitely generated, torsion free nilpotent groups satisfy the universal coefficient theorem.

For each α ≥ 0, let Bα be the universal C*-algebra generated by unitary elements uα, vα and a self-adjoint hα such that ||hα|| ≤ α and [Formula: see text]. In this work we prove that the family {Bα}α ∈ [0,∞[ extend the family of soft torus with the same basic properties, i.e., the field of C*-algebras {Bα}α ∈ [0,α0] is continuous and each Bα is a crossed product of a C*-algebra homotopically equivalent to C(S1) by Z. We then show that the K-groups of Bα are isomorphic to Z ⊕ Z. Applying results from the theory of rotation algebras we prove that every positive element (n,m) in K0(Bα) satisfies |m|α ≤ 2πn. It follows that these C*-algebras are not all homotopically equivalent to each other, although they have the same K-groups.

We show that if $G$ is a second countable locally compact Hausdorff étale groupoid carrying a suitable cocycle $c\colon G\to\mathbb{Z}$, then the reduced $C^*$-algebra of $G$ can be realised naturally as the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of a correspondence over the reduced $C^*$-algebra of the kernel $G_0$ of $c$. If the full and reduced $C^*$-algebras of $G_0$ coincide, we deduce that the full and reduced $C^*$-algebras of $G$ coincide. We obtain a six-term exact sequence describing the $K$-theory of $C^*_r(G)$ in terms of that of $C^*_r(G_0)$.
