Given a row-finite k-graph Λ with no sources we investigate the K-theory of the higher rank graph C *-algebra, C * (Λ). When k = 2 we are able to give explicit formulae to calculate the K-groups of C * (Λ). The K-groups of C * (Λ) for k > 2 can be calculated under certain circumstances. We state that for all k, the torsion-free rank of K 0 (C * (Λ)) and K 1 (C * (Λ)) are equal when C * (Λ) is unital, and we determine the position of the class of the unit of C * (Λ) in K 0 (C * (Λ)).

K-theory for real k-graph C∗-algebras

Simplicity of C*-algebras associated to row-finite locally convex higher-rank graphs

In a previous work, the authors showed that the C*-algebra C*(Λ) of a row-finite higher-rank graph Λ with no sources is simple if and only if Λ is both cofinal and aperiodic. In this paper, we…

A dual graph construction for higher-rank graphs, and K-theory for finite 2-graphs

Given a k-graph A and an element p of N k , we define the dual k-graph, pA. We show that when A is row-finite and has no sources, the C*-algebras C*(A) and C*(pA) coincide. We use this isomorphism to…

THE K-THEORY OF THE C -ALGEBRAS OF 2-RANK GRAPHS ASSOCIATED TO COMPLETE BIPARTITE GRAPHS

Using a result of Vdovina, we may associate to each complete connected bipartite graph κ a two-dimensional square complex, which we call a tile complex, whose link at each vertex is κ. We regard the…

Simplicity of twisted C*-algebras of higher-rank graphs and crossed products by quasifree actions

We characterise simplicity of twisted C*-algebras of row-finite k-graphs with no sources. We show that each 2-cocycle on a cofinal k-graph determines a canonical second-cohomology class for the…

Simplicity of C*‐algebras associated to higher‐rank graphs

We prove that if Λ is a row‐finite k‐graph with no sources, then the associated C*‐algebra is simple if and only if Λ is cofinal and satisfies Kumjian and Pask's aperiodicity condition, known as…

Twisted k-Graph Algebras Associated to Bratteli Diagrams

Given a system of coverings of k-graphs, we show that the second cohomology of the resulting (k + 1)-graph is isomorphic to that of any one of the k-graphs in the system, and compute the semifinite…

Higher Rank Graph C-Algebras

Building on recent work of Robertson and Steger, we associate a C{algebra to a combinatorial object which may be thought of as a higher rank graph. This C{algebra is shown to be isomorphic to that of…

Purely infinite C*-algebras from boundary actions of discrete groups.
