Approximately inner *-derivations of irrational rotation \(C^*\)- algebras (Q756663)

Let \(\theta\) be an irrational number and \(A_{\theta}\) the corresponding irrational rotation \(C^*\)-algebra. For \(k=1,2,...,\infty\), let \(A^ k_{\theta}\) be the dense *-subalgebra of k-times continuously differentiable elements in \(A_{\theta}\) with respect to the canonical action of the two-dimensional torus and let \(A^ 0_{\theta}=A_{\theta}\). The author gives examples of approximately inner *-derivations \(\delta\) : \(A_{\theta}^{k+1}\to A^ k_{\theta}\) which may or may not be inner. He shows there is an approximately inner *-derivation \(\delta\) : \(A_{\theta}^{\infty}\to A^{\infty}_{\theta}\) which is not inner if and only if \(\theta\) is non-generic.
