Abstract

We generalize Condition (K) from directed graphs to Boolean dynamical systems and show that a locally finite Boolean dynamical system (B,L,θ)(\mathcal{B},\mathcal{L},\theta) with countable B\mathcal{B} and L\mathcal{L} satisfies Condition (K) if and only if every ideal of its CC^*-algebra is gauge-invariant, if and only if its CC^*-algebra has the (weak) ideal property, and if and only if its CC^*-algebra has topological dimension zero. As a corollary we prove that if the CC^*-algebra of a locally finite Boolean dynamical system with B\mathcal{B} and L\mathcal{L} are countable either has real rank zero or is purely infinite, then (B,L,θ)(\mathcal{B}, \mathcal{L}, \theta) satisfies Condition (K). We also generalize the notion of maximal tails from directed graph to Boolean dynamical systems and use this to give a complete description of the primitive ideal space of the CC^*-algebra of a locally finite Boolean dynamical system that satisfies Condition (K) and has countable B\mathcal{B} and L\mathcal{L}.
