K-theory of crossed products of tiling C*-algebras by rotation groups
read the original abstract
Let $\Omega$ be a tiling space and let $G$ be the maximal group of rotations which fixes $\Omega$. Then the cohomology of $\Omega$ and $\Omega/G$ are both invariants which give useful geometric information about the tilings in $\Omega$. The noncommutative analog of the cohomology of $\Omega$ is the K-theory of a C*-algebra associated to $\Omega$, and for translationally finite tilings of dimension 2 or less the K-theory is isomorphic to the direct sum of cohomology groups. In this paper we give a prescription for calculating the noncommutative analog of the cohomology of $\Omega/G$, that is, the K-theory of the crossed product of the tiling C*-algebra by $G$. We also provide a table with some calculated K-groups for many common examples, including the Penrose and pinwheel tilings.
