We show that all trivial (unital and essential) extensions of C (X) by a σ-unital purely infinite simple C*-algebra A with K1(A) = 0 are unitarily equivalent, provided that X is homeomorphic to a compact subset of the real line or the unit circle. Therefore all (unital and essential) extensions of such can be completely determined by Ext(B, A). An invariant is introduced to classify all such trivial (unital and essential) extensions of C (X) by a σ-unital C*-algebra A with the properties that RR (M (A)) = 0 and C (A) is simple.

In this paper, using ordered total K-theory, we give a K-theoretic classification for the real rank zero inductive limits of direct sums of generalized dimension drop interval algebras.

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.

Let Γ=ℤm * ℤn or ℤ * ℤn, and let Γ(h) be the subtree consisting of all reduced words starting with any reduced word h ∈ Γ\{e}. We prove that the C*-algebra [Formula: see text] generated by [Formula: see text] and the projection Ph onto the subspace ℓ2(Γ(h)) has a unique nontrivial closed ideal ℐ, ℐ is *-isomorphic to [Formula: see text], and the quotient algebra [Formula: see text] is *-isomorphic to either [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] depending on the last letter of h. We also prove that [Formula: see text] is a purely infinite, simple C*-algebra if the last letter of h is a generator of ℤ, and that [Formula: see text] has a unique nontrivial closed ideal [Formula: see text] if the last letter of h is a generator of ℤn; furthermore, [Formula: see text] is *-isomorphic to [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is again a purely infinite, simple C*-algebra. As consequences, all the C*-algebras above have real rank zero, and [Formula: see text] is nuclear for any h ≠ e.

By proving various equivalent versions of the generalized Weyl-von Neumann theorem, we investigate the structure of projections in the multiplier algebra [Formula: see text] of certain C*-algebra [Formula: see text] with real rank zero. For example, we prove that [Formula: see text] if and only if any two projections in [Formula: see text] are simultaneously quasidiagonal. In case [Formula: see text] is a purely infinite simple C*-algebra, [Formula: see text] if and only if any two projections in [Formula: see text] are simultaneously quasidiagonal. If [Formula: see text] is one of the Cuntz algebras, or one of finite factors or type III factors, then any two projections in [Formula: see text] are simultaneously quasidiagonal. On the other hand, if [Formula: see text] is one of the Bunce-Deddens algebras or one of the irrational rotation algebras of real rank zero, then there exist two projections in [Formula: see text] which are not simultaneously quasidiagonal.

It is well known that every commutative separable unital C*-algebra of real rank zero is a quotient of the C*-algebra of all compex continuous functions defined on the Cantor cube. We prove a non-commutative version of this result by showing that the class of all separable unital C*-algebras of real rank zero coincides with the class of quotients of a certain separable unital C*-algebra of real rank zero.

In this paper we give a representation theorem for the Cuntz monoid S(A) of a σ-unital C*-algebra A with real rank zero and stable rank one, which allows to prove several Riesz decomposition properties on the monoid. As a consequence, it is proved that the comparability conditions (FCQ), stable (FCQ) and (FCQ+) are equivalent for simple C*-algebras with real rank zero. It is also shown that the Grothendieck group [Formula: see text] of S(A) is a Riesz group, and lattice-ordered under some additional assumptions on A.

AbstractFor C*-algebras of real rank zero, we describe linear maps ϕ on that are surjective up to ideals , and π(A) is invertible in if and only if π(ϕ(A)) is invertible in , where A ∈ and π : → is the quotient map. We also consider similar linear maps preserving zero products on the Calkin algebra.
