$C^*$-algebra of the $\mathds{Z}^n$-tree

Abstract

Let $\Lambda = \mathbb{Z}^n$ with lexicographic ordering. $\Lambda$ is a totally ordered group. Let $X = \Lambda^+ * \Lambda^+$. Then $X$ is a $\Lambda$-tree. Analogous to the construction of graph $C^*$-algebras, we form a groupoid whose unit space is the space of ends of the tree. The $C^*$-algebra of the $\Lambda$-tree is defined as the $C^*$-algebra of this groupoid. We prove some properties of this $C^*$-algebra.
