This observation is analogous to and in fact recovers a characterization of the UCT problem in terms of finite group actions on the Cuntz algebra $\\mathcal O_2$ established in previous work by the authors. Although based on a similar approach, the new conceptual ingredients in the finite context are the recent advances in the classification of stably projectionless $\\mathrm C^*$-algebras, as well as a known characterization of the UCT problem in terms of certain tracially AF $\\mathrm C^*$-algebras due to Dadarlat.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-12-03T19:35:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "uct problem", "razak-jacelon algebra", "crossed products", "finite cyclic group actions", "finite group actions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 10, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
