Jan 12, 2019 at 15:51 comment added Yemon Choi Thanks Mateusz. @NikWeaver: the OP wants $Z(A)=0$ not $\dim Z(A)=1$
Jan 12, 2019 at 15:03 comment added Nik Weaver Or just $A = M_n$ ...
Jan 12, 2019 at 15:03 comment added Nik Weaver Also, the reduced group C*-algebra of any discrete group always has a tracial state.
Jan 12, 2019 at 14:56 comment added Nik Weaver Irrational rotation algebras (quantum tori) are another example.
Jan 12, 2019 at 14:46 comment added Mateusz Wasilewski Nice answer. But the statement that $\mathcal{T}_0$ consists of Toeplitz operators whose symbol vanishes at $1$; you need to throw in the compact perturbations or allow products.
