Abstract

For a large class of C*-algebras AA, we calculate the KK-theory of reduced crossed products AGrGA^{\otimes G}\rtimes_rG of Bernoulli shifts by groups satisfying the Baum--Connes conjecture. In particular, we give explicit formulas for finite-dimensional C*-algebras, UHF-algebras, rotation algebras, and several other examples. As an application, we obtain a formula for the KK-theory of reduced C*-algebras of wreath products HGH\wr G for large classes of groups HH and GG. Our methods use a generalization of techniques developed by the second named author together with Joachim Cuntz and Xin Li, and a trivialization theorem for finite group actions on UHF algebras developed in a companion paper by the third and fourth named authors.
