Abstract/Résumé:

A class of C*-algebras, to be called those of generalized tracial rank one, is introduced. A second class of unital simple separable amenable C*-algebras, those whose tensor products with UHF-algebras of infinite type are in the first class, to be referred to as those of rational generalized tracial rank one, is proved to exhaust all possible values of the Elliott invariant for unital finite simple separable amenable \({\cal Z}\)-stable C*-algebras. A number of results toward the classification of the second class are presented including an isomorphism theorem for a special sub-class of the first class, leading to the general classification of all unital simple s with rational generalized tracial rank one in Part II.

Dans cet article et le prochain, on donne une classification complète, au moyen de l’invariant d’Elliott, d’une sous-classe de la classe des C*-algèbres simples, moyennables, séparables, à élément unité, absorbant l’algèbre de Jiang-Su, et satisfaisant au UCT, qui épuise l’ensemble des valeurs possibles de l’invariant pour cette class. La partie I réalise une grande partie de ce projet, et la partie II l’achève.

Abstract/Résumé:

Motivated by Huaxin Lin’s axiomatization of AH-algebras, the class of TASI-algebras is introduced as the class of unital C*-algebras which can be tracially approximated by splitting interval algebras—certain sub-C*-algebras of interval algebras. It is shown that the class of simple separable nuclear TASI-algebras satisfying the UCT is classified by the Elliott invariant. As a consequence, any such TASI-algebra is then isomorphic to an inductive limit of splitting interval algebras together with certain homogeneous C*-algebras—so it is an ASH-algebra.

Une classe de C*-algèbres qui généralisent la classe bien connue TAI de Lin est considérée—basées sur, au lieu de l’intervalle, ce qui pourrait s’appeler l’intervalle fendu (“splitting interval”), de sorte que l’on les appelle la classe TASI. On montre que la classe de C*-algèbres TASI qui sont simples, nucléaires, et à élément unité, qui vérifient le théorème à coefficients universels (UCT), peuvent se classifier d’après l’invariant d’Elliott.
