We present a new approach to Poincare duality for Cuntz-Pimsner algebras. We provide sufficient conditions under which Poincare self-duality for the coefficient algebra of a Hilbert bimodule lifts to Poincare self-duality for the associated Cuntz-Pimsner algebra. With these conditions in hand, we can constructively produce fundamental classes in K-theory for a wide range of examples. We can also produce K-homology fundamental classes for the important examples of Cuntz-Krieger algebras (following Kaminker-Putnam) and crossed products of manifolds by isometries, and their non-commutative analogues.

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.
Given two correspondences X and Y, we show that (under mild hypotheses) the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of the tensor product of X and Y embeds as a certain subalgebra of the tensor product of the Cuntz-Pimsner algebra of X and the Cuntz=Pimsner algebra of Y. Furthermore, this subalgebra can be described in a natural way in terms of the gauge actions on the Cuntz-Pimsner algebras. We explore implications for graph algebras, crossed products by the integers, and crossed products by completely positive maps. We also give a new proof of a result of Kaliszewski and Quigg related to coactions on correspondences.

Applications include a generalization of the well-known result of Muhly and Solel: Morita equivalent $C^*$-correspondences have Morita equivalent Cuntz-Pimsner algebras; as well as a generalization of the result of Kakariadis and Katsoulis: Regular shift equivalent $C^*$-correspondences have Morita equivalent Cuntz-Pimsner algebras.
We introduce the notion of a homotopy of product systems, and show that the Cuntz-Nica-Pimsner algebras of homotopic product systems over N^k have isomorphic K-theory. As an application, we give a new proof that the K-theory of a 2-graph C*-algebra is independent of the factorisation rules, and we further show that the K-theory of any twisted k-graph C*-algebra is independent of the twisting 2-cocycle. We also explore applications to K-theory for the C*-algebras of single-vertex k-graphs, reducing the question of whether the $K$-theory is independent of the factorisation rules to a question about path-connectedness of the space of solutions to an equation of Yang-Baxter type.
We establish exact sequences in $KK$-theory for graded relative Cuntz-Pimsner algebras associated to nondegenerate $C^*$-correspondences. We use this to calculate the graded $K$-theory and $K$-homology of relative Cuntz-Krieger algebras of directed graphs for gradings induced by ${0,1}$-valued labellings of their edge sets.
