A characterization is given for directed graphs that yield graph $C^*$-algebras with continuous trace. This is established for row-finite graphs with no sources first using a groupoid approach, and extended to the general case via the…

We show that the C*-algebra of a row-finite source-free k-graph is Rieffel-Morita equivalent to a crossed product of an AF algebra by the fundamental group of the k-graph. When the k-graph embeds in its fundamental groupoid, this AF algebra…

We prove that the C*-algebra of a directed graph $E$ is liminal iff the graph satisfies the finiteness condition: if $p$ is an infinite path or a path ending with a sink or an infinite emitter, and if $v$ is any vertex, then there are only…

It is shown that if A is a separable, exact C*-algebra which satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem (UCT) and has a faithful, amenable trace, then A admits a trace-preserving embedding into a simple, unital AF-algebra with unique…

We construct a locally compact Hausdorff topology on the path space of a directed graph $E$, and identify its boundary-path space $\partial E$ as the spectrum of a commutative $C^*$-subalgebra $D_E$ of $C^*(E)$. We then show that $\partial…

To a directed graph $E$ is associated a $C^*$-algebra $C^* (E)$ called a graph $C^*$-algebra. There is a canonical action $\gamma$ of ${\bf T}$ on $C^* (E)$, called the gauge action. In this paper we present necessary and sufficient…

A {\em hole} is a chordless cycle of length at least four. A hole is {\em even} (resp. {\em odd}) if it contains an even (resp. odd) number of vertices. A \emph{cap} is a graph induced by a hole with an additional vertex that is adjacent to…

Given a directed graph $E$ and a labeling $\mathcal{L}$, one forms the labeled graph $C^*$-algebra by taking a weakly left--resolving labeled space $(E, \mathcal{L}, \mathcal{B})$ and considering a universal generating family of partial…

We find a substantial class of pairs of $*$-homomorphisms between graph C*-algebras of the form $C^*(E)\hookrightarrow C^*(G)\twoheadleftarrow C^*(F)$ whose pullback C*-algebra is an AF graph C*-algebra. Our result can be interpreted as a…

Given an arbitrary countable directed graph $G$ we prove the C*-envelope of the tensor algebra $T_+(G)$ coincides with the universal Cuntz-Krieger algebra associated with $G$. Our approach is concrete in nature and does not rely on Hilbert…

It is now well known that a simple graph $C^*$-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a directed graph $E$ is either AF or purely infinite. In this paper, we address the question of whether this is the case for labeled graph $C^*$-algebras recently introduced…

Let $X$ be a compact metric space and let $\Lambda$ be a $\Z^k$ ($k\ge 1$) action on $X.$ We give a solution to a version of Voiculescu's problem of AF-embedding: The crossed product $C(X)\rtimes_{\Lambda}\Z^k$ can be embedded into a unital…

Inspired by Franks' classification of irreducible shifts of finite type we provide a short list of allowed moves on graphs that preserves the stable isomorphism class of the associated C*-algebras. We show that if two graphs have stably…

We consider graphs E which have been obtained by adding one or more sinks to a fixed directed graph G. We classify the C*-algebra of E up to a very strong equivalence relation, which insists, loosely speaking, that C*(G) is kept fixed. The…
