How to find the set of the unitization of suspension $C^*$ algebras

55 Views Asked by At

Suppose $A$ is a $C^*$-algebra, then the suspension $SA$ is given by

$SA=\{f\in C(\Bbb T,A):f(1)=0\}$.

I saw the following conclusions from Olsen's book (page 136) Denote the unitization of $SA$ by $\tilde{SA}$, then

$\tilde{SA}=\{f\in C(\Bbb T,A^+):f(1)=\lambda \in \Bbb C,\pi_{\Bbb C}f(z)=\lambda,\forall z \in \Bbb T\}$.

How to verify the above result?

Define $$\varphi:\tilde{SA}\to\{f\in C(\mathcal T,\tilde A):f(1)=\lambda,\pi_\mathbb Cf(z)=\lambda\}$$ by $$(\varphi(f,\lambda))(z)=(f(z),\lambda)$$ for $f\in SA$, $\lambda\in\mathbb C$. Show that this map is a $*$-isomorphism.

Prove that $$ \widetilde {SA} / SA \to \mathbb C : [f] \mapsto f(1) $$ is an isomorphism.
