On the Classification of C-algebras of Real Rank Zero

This work shows that $K$-theoretic data is a complete invariant for certain inductive limit $C^*$-algebras. $C^*$-algebras of this kind are useful in studying group actions. Su gives a $K$-theoretic classification of the real rank zero $C^*$-algebras that can be expressed as inductive limits of finite direct sums of matrix algebras over finite (possibly non-Hausdorff) graphs or Hausdorff one-dimensional spaces defined as inverse limits of finite graphs. In addition, Su establishes a characterization for an inductive limit of finite direct sums of matrix algebras over finite (possibly non-Hausdorff) graphs to be real rank zero.
