Sequences from zero entropy noncommutative toral automorphisms and Sarnak conjecture

Abstract: In this paper we study

C^{*}

-algebra version of Sarnak Conjecture for noncommutative toral automorphisms. Let

A_{T} h e t a

be a noncommutative torus and

a l p h a_{T} h e t a

be the noncommutative toral automorphism arising from a matrix

S i n G L (d, m a t h b b Z)

. We show that if the Voiculescu-Brown entropy of

a l p h a_{T h e t a}

is zero, then the sequence

{h o (a l p h a_{T h e t a}^{n} u)}_{n i n m a t h b b Z}

is a sum of a nilsequence and a zero-density-sequence, where

u i n A_{T} h e t a

and

h o

is any state on

A_{T} h e t a

. Then by a result of Green and Tao, this sequence is linearly disjoint from the M"obius function.
