Ideal structure of $C^*$-algebras associated with $C^*$-correspondences
Abstract
Description
We study the ideal structure of $C^*$-algebras arising from $C^*$-correspondences. We prove that gauge-invariant ideals of our $C^*$-algebras are parameterized by certain pairs of ideals of original $C^*$-algebras. We show that our $C^*$-algebras have a nice property which should be possessed by generalization of crossed products. Applications to crossed products by Hilbert $C^*$-bimodules and relative Cuntz-Pimsner algebras are also discussed.
