Abstract:

We consider the C *-algebra, A T , constructed from a substitution tiling system which is primitive, aperiodic and satisfies the finite pattern condition. Such a C *-algebra has a unique trace. We show that this trace completely determines the order structure on the group K 0(A T ); a non-zero element in K 0(A T ) is positive if and only if its image under the map induced from the trace is positive.
