Abstract:
We show that the -algebra associated to the tail-equivalence relation on a Bratteli diagram, according to a procedure recently introduced by the first-named author and A. Lopes, is isomorphic to the -algebra of the diagram. More generally we consider an approximately proper equivalence relation on a compact space for which the quotient maps are local homeomorphisms. We show that the algebra associated to under the above-mentioned procedure is isomorphic to the groupoid -algebra .
