For every uncountable cardinal $\kappa$ there are $2^\kappa$ nonisomorphic simple AF algebras of density character $\kappa$ and $2^\kappa$ nonisomorphic hyperfinite ${\rm II}_1$ factors of density character $\kappa$. These estimates are maximal possible. All C*-algebras that we construct have the same Elliott invariant and Cuntz semigroup as the CAR algebra.

Over the last thirty years, the study of C*-algebras has proceeded in a number of directions. On one hand, much effort has been devoted to understanding the structure of particular classes of algebras, such as the approximately finite (AF) algebras. On the other, general structure theorems have been sought. Classes of algebras defined by certain abstract properties have been investigated with a view to obtaining more concrete descriptions of the algebras. One of the earliest results of this type was the theorem of Glimm [13], later extended by Sakai [20] to the inseparable case, characterizing the non-type I C*-algebras as those algebras which contain a subalgebra with a quotient *-isomorphic to the CAR algebra.

AbstractThe semigroups of unital extensions of separable C*-algebras come in two flavours: a strong and a weak version. By the unital Ext-groups, we mean the groups of invertible elements in these semigroups. We use the unital Ext-groups to obtain K-theoretic classification of both unital and non-unital extensions of C*-algebras, and in particular we obtain a complete K-theoretic classification of full extensions of UCT Kirchberg algebras by stable AF algebras.

We prove that the pure state space is homogeneous under the action of the automorphism group (or a certain smaller group of approximately inner automorphisms) for a fairly large class of simple separable nuclear C*-algebras, including the approximately homogeneous C*-algebras and the class of purely infinite C*-algebras which has been recently classified by Kirchberg and Phillips. This extends the known results for UHF algebras and AF algebras by Powers and Bratteli.

AbstractWe realize the Jiang-Su algebra, all UHF algebras, and the hyperfinite II1 factor as Fraïssé limits of suitable classes of structures. Moreover by means of Fraïssé theory we provide new examples of AF algebras with strong homogeneity properties. As a consequence of our analysis we deduce Ramsey-theoretic results about the class of full-matrix algebras.

Let A, B be separable simple unital tracially AF C*-algebras. Assuming that A is exact and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem (UCT) in KK-theory, we prove the existence, and uniqueness modulo approximately inner automorphisms, of nuclear *-homomorphisms from A to B with prescribed K-theory data. This implies the AF-embeddability of separable exact residually finite-dimensional C*-algebras satisfying the UCT and reproves Huaxin Lin's theorem on the classification of nuclear tracially AF C*-algebras.

The functionals on an ordered semigroup $S$ in the category $\mathbf{Cu}$ - a category to which the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra naturally belongs - are investigated. After appending a new axiom to the category $\mathbf{Cu}$, it is shown that the "realification" $S_{\mathsf{R}}$ of $S$ has the same functionals as $S$ and, moreover, is recovered functorially from the cone of functionals of $S$. Furthermore, if $S$ has a weak Riesz decomposition property, then $S_{\mathsf{R}}$ has refinement and interpolation properties which imply that the cone of functionals on $S$ is a complete distributive lattice. These results apply to the Cuntz semigroup of a C*-algebra. At the level of C*-algebras, the operation of realification is matched by tensoring with a certain stably projectionless C*-algebra.

Recently a new kind of approximation to continuum topological spaces has been introduced, the approximating spaces being partially ordered sets (posets) with a finite or at most a countable number of points. The partial order endows a poset with a nontrivial non-Hausdorff topology. Their ability to reproduce important topological information of the continuum has been the main motivation for their use in quantum physics. Posets are truly noncommutative spaces, or noncommutative lattices, since they can be realized as structure spaces of noncommutative C*-algebras. These noncommutative algebras play the same rôle as the algebra of continuous functions [Formula: see text] on a Hausdorff topological space M and can be thought of as algebras of operator valued functions on posets. In this article, we will review some mathematical results that establish a duality between finite posets and a certain class of C*-algebras. We will see that the algebras in question are all postliminal approximately finite dimensional (AF) algebras.

AbstractWe will give a characterization of stable real C*-algebras analogous to the one given for complex C*-algebras by Hjelmborg and Rørdam. Using this result, we will prove that any real C*-algebra satisfying the corona factorization property is stable if and only if its complexification is stable. Real C*-algebras satisfying the corona factorization property include AF-algebras and purely infinite C*-algebras. We will also provide an example of a simple unstable C*-algebra, the complexification of which is stable.
