dc.descriptionA covering of k-graphs (in the sense of Pask-Quigg-Raeburn) induces an embedding of universal C*-algebras. We show how to build a (k+1)-graph whose universal algebra encodes this embedding. More generally we show how to realise a direct limit of k-graph algebras under embeddings induced from coverings as the universal algebra of a (k+1)-graph. Our main focus is on computing the K-theory of the (k+1)-graph algebra from that of the component k-graph algebras. Examples of our construction include a realisation of the Kirchberg algebra \mathcal{P}_n whose K-theory is opposite to that of \mathcal{O}_n, and a class of AT-algebras that can naturally be regarded as higher-rank Bunce-Deddens algebras.
dc.description44 pages, 2 figures, some diagrams drawn using picTeX. v2. A number of typos corrected, some references updated. The statements of Theorem 6.7(2) and Corollary 6.8 slightly reworded for clarity. v3. Some references updated; in particular, theorem numbering of references to Evans updated to match published version
