Non-MF groups and non-finite full group C*-algebras
Abstract
Let Γ be a property (T) group admitting an injective, non-surjective endomorphism and let G be the associated ascending HNN-extension. Let W=(⨁G/Γ ℤ/2ℤ) rtimes G. We show that W is not an MF group and that C*(G) is not a finite C*-algebra. The ideas and proofs were generated by ChatGPT 5.6 Sol, we have only refined their arguments in a hopefully more palatable form.
