报告题目:Long thin covers and nuclear dimension of C*-algebras
报告摘要:
A recurring theme in the study of C*-algebras is their strong ties to topological dynamical systems, paralleling the fruitful interplay between von Neumann algebra theory and ergodic theory. The breakthroughs in the Elliott classification program of C*-algebras in the last decade have led to a prominent question around this theme, namely: when does the C*-algebra arising from a topological dynamical system satisfy finite nuclear dimension?
In a recent preprint (joint with Hirshberg), we verify finite nuclear dimension for any (crossed product) C*-algebra arising from an action by a finitely generated virtually nilpotent group on a finite-dimensional space. This is shown by introducing a new topological-dynamical dimension concept called the long thin covering dimension. This result can be strengthened further and applied to some allosteric (and thus non-almost-finite) actions by certain wreath product groups. Another application yields the result (joint with Eckhardt) that (twisted) group C*-algebras of virtually polycyclic groups have finite nuclear dimension.
