dc.descriptionWe study the $C^{*}$-algebra $\mathcal{A}_{n,θ}$ generated by the Anzai flow on the $n$-dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^n$. It is proved that this algebra is a simple quotient of the group $C^{*}$-algebra of a lattice subgroup $\mathfrak{D}_n$ of a $(n+2)$-dimensional connected simply connected nilpotent Lie group $F_n$ whose corresponding Lie algebra is the generic filiform Lie algebra $\mathfrak{f}_{n}$. Other simple infinite dimensional quotients of $C^{*}(\mathfrak{D}_n)$ are also characterized and represented as matrix algebras over simple affine Furstenberg transformation group $C^*$-algebras of the lower dimensional tori. The $K$-groups of the $\mathcal{A}_{n,θ}$ and other simple quotients of $C^{*}(\mathfrak{D}_n)$ are studied, the Pimsner-Voiculescu 6-term exact sequence being a useful tool. The rank of the $K$-groups of $\mathcal{A}_{n,θ}$ is studied as explicitly as possible, and is proved to be the same as for more general transformation group $C^*$-algebras of $\mathbb{T}^n$ including the Furstenberg transformation group \text{$C^*$-algebras} $A_{F_{f,θ}}$. An error (about these $K$-groups) in the literature is addressed.
