Traceless AF embeddings and unsuspended \(E\)-theory



Abstract: I show that quasidiagonality and AF embeddability are equivalent properties for traceless mathrmCast-algebras and are characterised in terms of the primitive ideal space. For nuclear mathrmCast-algebras the same characterisation determines when Connes and Higson's E-theory can be unsuspended.


The main result of the paper is: {Theorem A.} For a separable exact \(C^*\)-algebra \(A\), the following conditions are equivalent: \begin{itemize} \item \(A\) embeds into Rørdam's purely infinite ASH algebra \(A_{[0,1]}\) (which is an inductive limit of cones over matrix algebras); \item \(A\) embeds into the cone over the Cuntz algebra \(\mathcal O_2\); \item \(A\) embeds into a zero-homotopic \(C^*\)-algebra; \item the primitive ideal space \(\operatorname{Prim}A\) has no non-empty compact open subsets. \end{itemize} This result has a series of interesting corollaries. It is shown that if \(A\) satisfies the conditions of Theorem~A, then it is AF embeddable (and, in particular, quasidiagonal). If \(A\) is additionally traceless, then the conditions of Theorem~A are equivalent to AF embeddability, to quasidiagonality and to stable finiteness. If \(A\) is a nuclear \(C^*\)-algebra, then the conditions of Theorem~A are equivalent to unsuspendability of \(E\)-theory (\(E(A,B)\cong A,B\) for any separable stable \(C^*\)-algebra~\(B\), where \(\cdot,\cdot\) denotes the homotopy classes of asymptotic homomorphisms.
