K-groups and classification of simple quotients of group C*-algebras of certain discrete 5-dimensional nilpotent groups

S. Walters

Vol. 202 (2002), No. 2, 491–509
Abstract

The K-groups, the range of trace on K0, and isomorphism classifications are obtained for simple infinite dimensional quotient C*-algebras of the group C*-algebras of six lattice subgroups, corresponding to each of the six non-isomorphic 5-dimensional connected, simply connected, nilpotent Lie groups. Connes’ non-commutative geometry involving cyclic cocycles and the Chern character play a key role in the proofs.
