Phase transition in O2

Abstract

We exhibit a one-parameter group of automorphism on the Cuntz-algebra O2 such that the simplex of KMS states changes abruptly at a certain critical temperature from infinitely many to one, and then none. The factor types of the extremal KMS states are also determined.
