چکیده

A subgroup of an amenable group is amenable. The C*-algebra version of this fact is false. This was first proved by M.-D. Choi [9] who proved that the non-nuclear C*-algebra C*(Z2 * Z3) is a subalgebra of the nuclear Cuntz algebra €2. A. Connes provided another example, based on a crossed product construction. More recently J. Spielberg [23] showed that these examples were essentially the same. In fact he proved that certain of the C*-algebras studied by J. Cuntz and W. Krieger [10] can be constructed naturally as crossed product algebras. For example, if the group F acts simply transitively on a homogeneous tree of finite degree with boundary Q then C(Q) X F is a Cuntz-Krieger algebra. Such trees may be regarded as affine buildings of type Ax. The present paper is devoted to the study of the analogous situation where a group F acts simply transitively on the vertices of an affine building of type A2 with boundary Q [8]. The corresponding crossed product algebra C(Q) X F is then generated by two Cuntz-Krieger algebras. (See § 3.) Moreover, we show that C(Q) X F is simple and nuclear. This is a consequence of the facts that the action of F on Q is minimal, topologically free, and amenable. (See § 4.)

AN INVESTIGATION ON THE CO-ANNIHILATORS IN TRIANGLE ALGEBRAS

In this paper, we introduce the notion of co-annihilator of a subsetin a triangle algebra. It is shown that the co-annihilator of asubset is an interval valued residuated lattice (IVRL)-filter. Also, aspecial set of a triangle algebra is defined and the relationshipbetween this set and co-annihilator of a subset in triangle algebrais considered. Finally, co-annihilators preserving congruencerel...

The role of states in triangle algebras

In this paper, we enlarge the language of triangle algebra by addinga unary operation that describes properties of a state. Thesestructure algebras are called state triangle algebra. The vitalproperties of these algebras are given. The notion of state interval-valued residuated lattice (IVRL)-filters are introduced and givesome examples and properties of them are given. ...

Schwarz boundary problem on a triangle

In this paper, the Schwarz boundary value problem (BVP) for the inhomogeneous Cauchy-Riemann equation in a triangle is investigated explicitly. Firstly, by the technique of parquetingreflection and the Cauchy-Pompeiu representation formula a modified Cauchy-Schwarz representation formula is obtained. Then, the solution of the Schwarz BVP is explicitly solved. In particular, the boundary behavio...
