Traces on topological-graph algebras

Abstract: Given a topological graph

E

, we give a complete description of tracial states on the C*-algebra

m a t h r m C^{*} (E)

which are invariant under the gauge action; there is an affine homeomorphism between the space of gauge invariant tracial states on

m a t h r m C^{*} (E)

and Radon probability measures on the vertex space

E^{0}

which are, in a suitable sense, invariant under the action of the edge space

E^{1}

. It is shown that if

E

has no cycles, then every tracial state on

m a t h r m C^{*} (E)

is gauge invariant. When

E^{0}

is totally disconnected, the gauge invariant tracial states on

m a t h r m C^{*} (E)

are in bijection with the states on

m a t h r m K_{0} (m a t h r m C^{*} (E))

.
