Cartan subalgebras in uniform Roe algebras

In this paper we study structural and uniqueness questions for Cartan subalgebras of uniform Roe algebras. We characterise when an inclusion $B\subseteq A$ of $\mathrm{C}^*$-algebras is isomorphic to the canonical inclusion of $\ell^\infty(X)$ inside a uniform Roe algebra $C^*_u(X)$ associated to a metric space of bounded geometry. We obtain uniqueness results for `Roe Cartans' inside uniform Roe algebras up to automorphism when $X$ coarsely embeds into Hilbert space, and up to inner automorphism when $X$ has property A.
