KMS states on generalised Bunce-Deddens algebras and their Toeplitz extensions
Abstract
We study the generalised Bunce-Deddens algebras and their Toeplitz extensions constructed by Kribs and Solel from a directed graph and a sequence of positive integers. We describe both of these -algebras in terms of novel universal properties, and prove uniqueness theorems for them; if determines an infinite supernatural number, then no aperiodicity hypothesis is needed in our uniqueness theorem for the generalised Bunce-Deddens algebra. We calculate the KMS states for the gauge action in the Toeplitz algebra when the underlying graph is finite. We deduce that the generalised Bunce-Deddens algebra is simple if and only if it supports exactly one KMS state, and this is equivalent to the terms in the sequence all being coprime with the period of the underlying graph.

30 pages. This version includes a section on the topological graph $E(\infty)$, which allows us to use the work of Katsura to obtain a uniqueness theorem for $C^*(E,\omega)$, and a characterisation of the ideal structure of $C^*(E,\omega)$ when $E$ is finite and strongly connected. The introduction and references have been updated. Minor typos have been corrected
