It is shown that the Cuntz semigroup of a space with dimension at most two, and with second cohomology of its compact subsets equal to zero, is isomorphic to the ordered semigroup of lower semicontinuous functions on the space with values in the natural numbers with the infinity adjoined. This computation is then used to obtain the Cuntz semigroup of all compact surfaces. A converse to the first computation is also proven: if the Cuntz semigroup of a separable C*-algebra is isomorphic to the lower semicontinuous functions on a topological space with values in the extended natural numbers, then the C*-algebra is commutative up to stability, and its spectrum satisfies the dimensional and cohomological conditions mentioned above.

We study comparison properties in the category Cu aiming to lift results to the C*-algebraic setting. We introduce a new comparison property and relate it to both the CFP and $omega$-comparison. We show differences of all properties by providing examples, which suggest that the corona factorization property for C*-algebras might allow for both finite and infinite projections. In addition, we show that R{o}rdams simple, nuclear C*-algebra with a finite and an infinite projection does not have the CFP.
Strengthening classical results by Bratteli and Kishimoto, we prove that two subshifts of finite type are shift equivalent in the sense of Williams if and only if their Cuntz-Krieger algebras are equivariantly stably isomorphic. This provides an equivalent formulation of Williams problem from symbolic dynamics in terms of Cuntz-Krieger C*-algebras. To establish our results, we apply works on shift equivalence and strong Morita equivalence of C*-correspondences due to Eleftherakis, Kakariadis and Katsoulis. Our main results then yield K-theory classification of C*-dynamical systems arising from Cuntz-Krieger algebras.
In this article, we present a new method to study relative Cuntz-Krieger algebras for higher-rank graphs. We only work with edges rather than paths of arbitrary degrees. We then use this method to simplify the existing results about relative Cuntz-Krieger algebras. We also give applications to study ideals and quotients of Toeplitz algebras.
We construct a functor that maps $C^*$-correspondences to their Cuntz-Pimsner algebras. The objects in our domain category are $C^*$-correspondences, and the morphisms are the isomorphism classes of $C^*$-correspondences satisfying certain conditions. As an application, we recover a well-known result of Muhly and Solel. In fact, we show that functoriality leads us to a more generalized result: strongly Morita equivalent $C^*$-correspondences have Morita equivalent Cuntz-Pimsner algebras.
Motivated by the theory of Cuntz-Krieger algebras we define and study $ C^ast $-algebras associated to directed quantum graphs. For classical graphs the $ C^ast $-algebras obtained this way can be viewed as free analogues of Cuntz-Krieger algebras, and need not be nuclear. We study two particular classes of quantum graphs in detail, namely the trivial and the complete quantum graphs. For the trivial quantum graph on a single matrix block, we show that the associated quantum Cuntz-Krieger algebra is neither unital, nuclear nor simple, and does not depend on the size of the matrix block up to $ KK $-equivalence. In the case of the complete quantum graphs we use quantum symmetries to show that, in certain cases, the corresponding quantum Cuntz-Krieger algebras are isomorphic to Cuntz algebras. These isomorphisms, which seem far from obvious from the definitions, imply in particular that these $ C^ast $-algebras are all pairwise non-isomorphic for complete quantum graphs of different dimensions, even on the level of $ KK $-theory. We explain how the notion of unitary error basis from quantum information theory can help to elucidate the situation. We also discuss quantum symmetries of quantum Cuntz-Krieger algebras in general.
