Deformations of nilpotent groups and homotopy symmetric \(C^*\)-algebras




Abstract: The homotopy symmetric C-algebras are those separable C-algebras for which one can unsuspend in E-theory. We find a new simple condition that characterizes homotopy symmetric nuclear C-algebras and use it to show that the property of being homotopy symmetric passes to nuclear C-subalgebras and it has a number of other significant permanence properties. As an application, we show that if I(G) is the kernel of the trivial representation iota:C(G)omathbbC for a countable discrete torsion free nilpotent group G, then I(G) is homotopy symmetric and hence the Kasparov group KK(I(G),B) can be realized as the homotopy classes of asymptotic morphisms [[I(G),BotimesmathcalK]] for any separable C-algebra B.
