Discrete cocompact subgroups of \(G_{5,3}\) and related \(C^*\)-algebras (Q2496914)

The group \(G_{5,3}\) is one of six nilpotent, connected, simply connected, five-dimensional Lie groups. In the paper under review, the authors characterize -- up to isomorphism -- all discrete, co-compact subgroups of \(G_{5,3}\). (A closed subgroup \(H\) of a locally compact group \(G\) is called co-compact if the corresponding homogeneous space \(G/H\) is compact.) For each such subgroup of \(G_{5,3}\), the corresponding group \(C^\ast\)-algebra is studied. More precisely, for each such group \(C^\ast\)-algebra, the authors determine all of its simple, infinite-dimensional quotients and compute their \(K\)-groups and trace invariants.
