KMS states for the generalized gauge action on graph algebras


Abstract in English

Given a positive function on the set of edges of an arbitrary directed graph $E=(E^0,E^1)$, we define a one-parameter group of automorphisms on the C*-algebra of the graph $C^*(E)$, and study the problem of finding KMS states for this action. We prove that there are bijective correspondences between KMS states on $C^*(E)$, a certain class of states on its core, and a certain class of tracial states on $C_0(E^0)$. We also find the ground states for this action and give some examples.
