Abstract

In this paper, we give a self-contained and quite elementary proof that the class of all dimension drop algebras together with their distinguished faithful traces forms a Fraïssé class with the Jiang–Su algebra as its limit. We also show that the UHF algebras can be realized as Fraïssé limits of classes of C*-algebras of matrix-valued continuous functions on [0,1] with faithful traces.
