In this paper we shall consider the class of C*-algebras which are inductive limits of sequences of finite-dimensional C*-algebras. We shall give a complete description of those C*-algebras in this class every derivation of which is inner.Theorem. Let A be a C*-algebra. Suppose that A is the inductive limit of a sequence of finite-dimensional C*-algebras. Then the following statements are equivalent:(i) every derivation of A is inner;(ii) A is the direct sum of a finite number of algebras each of which is either commutative, the tensor product of a finite-dimensional and a commutative with unit, or simple with unit.

A C*-algebra A is said to be approximately finite dimensional (AF) if it is the inductive limit of a sequence of finite dimensional C*-algebras(see [2], [5]). It is said to be nuclear if, for each C*-algebra B, there is a unique C*-norm on the *-algebraic tensor product A ⊗B [11]. Since finite dimensional C*-algebras are nuclear, and inductive limits of nuclear C*-algebras are nuclear [16];,every AF C*-algebra is nuclear. The family of nuclear C*-algebras is a large and well-behaved class (see [12]). The AF C*-algebras for a particularly tractable sub-class which has been completely classified in terms of the invariant K0 [7], [5].

Let $A$ be a $C^{*}$-algebra. It is well known that the functor $B \mapsto A \otimes B$ of taking the minimal tensor product with $A$ preserves inductive limits if and only if it is exact. $C^{*}$-algebras with this property play an important role in the structure and finite-dimensional approximation theory of $C^{*}$-algebras. We consider a $K$-theoretic analogue of this result and show that the functor $B \mapsto K_{0}(A \otimes B)$ preserves inductive limits if and only if it is half-exact.

Given a unital inductive limit of C*-algebras for which each C*-algebra of the inductive sequence comes equipped with a Rieffel compact quantum metric, we produce sufficient conditions to build a compact quantum metric on the inductive limit from the quantum metrics on the inductive sequence by utilizing the completeness of the dual Gromov–Hausdorff propinquity of Latrémolière on compact quantum metric spaces. This allows us to place new quantum metrics on all unital approximately finite-dimensional (AF) algebras that extend our previous work with Latrémolière on unital AF algebras with faithful tracial state. As a consequence, we produce a continuous image of the entire Fell topology on the ideal space of any unital AF algebra in the dual Gromov–Hausdorff propinquity topology.

Let G be an inductive limit of finite cyclic groups, and A be a unital simple projectionless C*-algebra with K1(A) ≅ G and a unique tracial state, as constructed based on dimension drop algebras by Jiang and Su. First, we show that any two aperiodic elements in Aut (A)/ WInn (A) are conjugate, where WInn (A) means the subgroup of Aut (A) consisting of automorphisms which are inner in the tracial representation.In the second part of this paper, we consider a class of unital simple C*-algebras with a unique tracial state which contains the class of unital simple A𝕋-algebras of real rank zero with a unique tracial state. This class is closed under inductive limits and crossed products by actions of ℤ with the Rohlin property. Let A be a TAF-algebra in this class. We show that for any automorphism α of A there exists an automorphism ᾶ of A with the Rohlin property such that ᾶ and α are asymptotically unitarily equivalent. For the proof we use an aperiodic automorphism of the Jiang-Su algebra.

Let H be a finite dimensional Hopf C*-algebra, H1 a Hopf*-subalgebra of H. This paper focuses on the observable algebra AH1 determined by H1 in nonequilibrium Hopf spin models, in which there is a copy of H1 on each lattice site, and a copy of ? on each link, where ? denotes the dual of H. Furthermore, using the iterated twisted tensor product of finite +*-algebras, one can prove that the observable algebraAH1 is *-isomorphic to the C*-inductive limit ... o H1 o ? o H1 o ? o H1 o ... .

In this note we define and discuss some properties of partition of unity on *-inductive limits of topological vector spaces. We prove that if a partition of unity exists on a *-inductive limit space of a collection of topological vector spaces, then it is isomorphic and homeomorphic to a subspace of a *-direct sum of topological vector spaces.

An ATAI (or ATAF, respectively) algebra, introduced in [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404] (or in [X. C. Fang, The classification of certain non-simple C*-algebras of tracial rank zero, J. Funct. Anal. 256 (2009) 3861–3891], respectively) is an inductive limit [Formula: see text], where each [Formula: see text] is a simple separable nuclear TAI (or TAF) C*-algebra with UCT property. In [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404], the second author classified all ATAI algebras by an invariant consisting orderd total [Formula: see text]-theory and tracial state spaces of cut down algebras under an extra restriction that all element in [Formula: see text] are torsion. In this paper, we remove this restriction, and obtained the classification for all ATAI algebras with the Hausdorffized algebraic [Formula: see text]-group as an addition to the invariant used in [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404]. The theorem is proved by reducing the class to the classification theorem of [Formula: see text] algebras with ideal property which is done in [G. Gong, C. Jiang and L. Li, A classification of inductive limit C*-algebras with ideal property, preprint (2016), arXiv:1607.07681]. Our theorem generalizes the main theorem of [X. C. Fang, The classification of certain non-simple C*-algebras of tracial rank zero, J. Funct. Anal. 256 (2009) 3861–3891], [C. Jiang, A classification of non simple C*-algebras of tracial rank one: Inductive limit of finite direct sums of simple TAI C*-algebras, J. Topol. Anal. 3 (2011) 385–404] (see Corollary 4.3).

AbstractLet A be a C*-algebra and let ΘA be the canonical contraction form the Haagerup tensor product of M(A) with itself to the space of completely bounded maps on A. In this paper we consider the following conditions on A: (a) A is a finitely generated module over the centre of M(A); (b) the image of ΘA is equal to the set E(A) of all elementary operators on A; and (c) the lengths of elementary operators on A are uniformly bounded. We show that A satisfies (a) if and only if it is a finite direct sum of unital homogeneous C*-algebras. We also show that if a separable A satisfies (b) or (c), then A is necessarily subhomogeneous and the C*-bundles corresponding to the homogeneous subquotients of A must be of finite type.

AbstractWe use some results about stable relations to show that some of the simple, stable, projectionless crossed products of O2 by considered by Kishimoto and Kumjian are inductive limits of type C*-algebras. The type I C*-algebras that arise are pullbacks of finite direct sums of matrix algebras over the continuous functions on the unit interval by finite dimensional C*-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.
