\(K\)-theory of crossed products of tiling \(C^*\)-algebras by rotation groups (Q2258002)

This article computes certain \(K\)-theory groups for tilings of the two-dimensional plane. The space of tilings of a certain shape always carries an action by the translation group, and may have further rotational symmetry, usually by some finite cyclic group. This article computes the \(K\)-theory of the crossed product of the tiling \(C^*\)-algebra by this finite group of rotations. After a general result for two-dimensional tilings, several examples are computed explicitly. The main result depends on special features of dimension two: the set of fixed-points is finite, and a certain boundary map in a long exact \(K\)-theory sequence vanishes automatically.
