We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server as of 1 March 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.

An equivariant pullback structure of trimmable graph C*-algebras
Francesca Arici, Francesco D'Andrea, Piotr M. Hajac and Mariusz Tobolski
We prove that the graph C*-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a trimmable graph $E$ is $U(1)$-equivariantly isomorphic to a pullback C*-algebra of a subgraph C*-algebra $C^*(E'')$ and the C*-algebra of functions on a circle tensored with another subgraph C*-algebra $C^*(E')$. This allows us to unravel the structure and K-theory of the fixed-point subalgebra $C^*(E)^{U(1)}$ through the (typically simpler) C*-algebras $C^*(E')$, $C^*(E'')$ and $C^*(E'')^{U(1)}$. As examples of trimmable graphs, we consider one-loop extensions of the standard graphs encoding respectively the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_2$ and the Toeplitz algebra $\mathcal{T}$. Then we analyze equivariant pullback structures of trimmable graphs yielding the C*-algebras of the Vaksman--Soibelman quantum sphere $S^{2n+1}_q$ and the quantum lens space $L_q^3(l; 1,l)$, respectively.
