On the Independence of K-Theory and Stable Rank for Simple C*-Algebras

On the Independence of K-Theory and Stable Rank for Simple C*-Algebras

Jiang and Su and (independently) Elliott discovered a simple, nuclear, infinite-dimensional C*-algebra ℒ̵ having the same Elliott invariant as the complex numbers. For a nuclear C*-algebra A with weakly unperforated K*-group the Elliott invariant of A ⊗ ℒ̵ is isomorphic to that of A. Thus, any simple nuclear C*-algebra A …
