Abstract

Let E=(E0,E1,r,s)E = (E^0, E^1, r, s) be a topological graph with no sinks such that E0E^0 and E1E^1 are compact. We show that when C(E)C^*(E) is finite, there is a natural isomorphism C(E)C(E)ZC^*(E) \cong C(E^\infty) \rtimes \mathbb{Z}, where EE^\infty is the infinite path space of EE and the action is given by the backwards shift on EE^\infty. Combining this with a result of Pimsner, we show the properties of being AF-embeddable, quasidiagonal, stably finite, and finite are equivalent for C(E)C^*(E) and can be characterized by a natural "combinatorial" condition on EE.
