Abstract
We present a class of subshifts whose associated -algebras are simple, purely infinite and not stably isomorphic to any Cuntz-Krieger algebra nor to Cuntz algebra. The class of the subshifts is the first examples whose associated -algebras are not stably isomorphic to any Cuntz-Krieger algebra nor to Cuntz algebra. The subshifts are coded systems whose languages are context free. We compute the topological entropy for the subshifts and show that KMS-state for gauge action on the associated -algebra exists if and only if the logarithm of the inverse temperature is the topological entropy for the subshift , and the corresponding KMS-state is unique.
