Razak-Jacelon Algebra


The Razak-Jacelon algebra W is the simple separable nuclear stably projectionless C^*-algebra with trivial K-theory obtained as an inductive limit of Razak building blocks, with a unique tracial state and no unbounded densely defined traces. Stably projectionless means that W tensor K has no nonzero projection, where K is the compact operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. The algebra is nonunital. Simple inductive limits of Razak building blocks are classified by their extended trace cone together with the subset of bounded traces of norm at most 1 (Jacelon 2013, Theorem 1.1).
