Abstract

Let (G,Λ)(G, \Lambda) be a self-similar kk-graph with a possibly infinite vertex set Λ0\Lambda^0. We associate a universal C*-algebra OG,Λ\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda} to (G,Λ)(G,\Lambda). The main purpose of this paper is to investigate the ideal structures of OG,Λ\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}. We prove that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the set of all GG-hereditary and GG-saturated subsets of Λ0\Lambda^0 and the set of all gauge-invariant and diagonal-invariant ideals of OG,Λ\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}. Under some conditions, we characterize all primitive ideas of OG,Λ\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}. Moreover, we describe the Jacobson topology of some concrete examples, which includes the C*-algebra of the product of odometers. On the way to our main results, we study self-similar PP-graph C*-algebras in depth.
