AbstractWe associate with the Farey tessellation of the upper half-plane an AF algebra encoding the “cutting sequences” that define vertical geodesics. The Effros–Shen AF algebras arise as quotients of . Using the path algebra model for AF algebras we construct, for each τ ∈ ( 0, ¼], projections (En) in such that EnEn±1En ≤ τ En.

Let A and B be C*-algebras acting on a Hilbert space H, and letwhere A1 is the unit ball in A and d(a, B1) denotes the distance of a from B1. We shall consider the following problem: if ‖A – B‖ is sufficiently small, does it follow that there is a unitary operator u such that uAu* = B?Such questions were first considered by Kadison and Kastler in [9], and have received considerable attention. In particular in the case where A is an approximately finite-dimensional (or hyperfinite) von Neumann algebra, the question has an affirmative answer (cf [3], [8], [12]). We shall show that in the case where A and B are approximately finite-dimensional C*-algebras (AF-algebras) the problem also has a positive answer.

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.

An AF algebra [Formula: see text] is said to be an AF[Formula: see text] algebra if the Murray–von Neumann order of its projections is a lattice. Many, if not most, of the interesting classes of AF algebras existing in the literature are AF[Formula: see text] algebras. We construct an algorithm which, on input a finite presentation (by generators and relations) of the Elliott semigroup of an AF[Formula: see text] algebra [Formula: see text], generates a Bratteli diagram of [Formula: see text] We generalize this result to the case when [Formula: see text] has an infinite presentation with a decidable word problem, in the sense of the classical theory of recursive group presentations. Applications are given to a large class of AF algebras, including almost all AF algebras whose Bratteli diagram is explicitly described in the literature. The core of our main algorithms is a combinatorial-polyhedral version of the De Concini–Procesi theorem on the elimination of points of indeterminacy in toric varieties.

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.
