Dec 12, 2020 at 19:41 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor Any way one can consider both properties with two different name. But it seems that the irreducible one is more interesting(and less obvious).
Dec 12, 2020 at 19:09 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor However I am not sure I am convinced by answer of Nik Weaver. I should rea his answer again.
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:58 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor Thanks for your recent edit of my question. But there is a question in my mind since many years ago. Some times a user edit my post. When I look at his edit I realize that some words is edited without any change. for example in the second paragraph you changed "algebras"to again "algebras". What is the reason for this situation?
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:53 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor The first one. Please see the answer by Nik Weaver.
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:45 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor apart from these cases. it would be interesting to find some non examples.
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:43 comment added YCor But your questions give two definitions of Fredholm C$*$-algebra. Which one of the two questions is supposed to characterize them?
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:42 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor Yes I see. Any way as you said every algebra with finite dimensional quotien is a fredholm algebra.
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:36 comment added YCor No, irreducible is clearly defined (=nonzero and no proper nonzero closed invariant subspace). "Trivial" is slightly more ambiguous since it can be the trivial irrep (1-dimensional), or any trivial representation (which can be in dimension 0, 1, or more).
Dec 12, 2020 at 18:30 comment added YCor Actually I especially amended my comment. So, for the first question, this class contains all C$*$-algebras that admit a nonzero finite-dimensional representation, i.e., admit a nonzero finite-dimensional quotient.
Dec 12, 2020 at 17:58 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor I do not know. by definition, if we consider the zero representation on $H=\mathbb{C}$ as an irreducible representation. any way why should be worry about it? what do you mean by "but actually this trivial 1 dimensional representation does not exist". I think the question is clear, do you agree?
Dec 12, 2020 at 16:14 comment added YCor Oh, but actually this trivial 1-dimensional rep doesn't always exist... maybe my comment was stupid. I see no reason in particular to single out the trivial 1-dimensional rep among all finite-dimensional irreducible reps.
Dec 12, 2020 at 16:05 comment added Ali Taghavi @YCor Good point! one may add "non trivial representation"
Dec 12, 2020 at 14:34 comment added YCor How do you exclude the trivial 1-dim rep for the first question?

Sep 6, 2020 at 1:16 comment added Ali Taghavi $\{P(s)\mid s\text{ is the shift operator, whose index is -1}\}$
Sep 6, 2020 at 1:12 comment added Ali Taghavi @YemonChoi Trivial examples: Finite dimensions. Or in the case of infinite dimension, the scalar 1 dimensional space. or any subspace which does not contain any fredholm operator. As another example the space of $\{P(s)\mid s\text{ is the shift operator, whose index is -1 and P is an arbitrary polynomial of degree at most n\}$
Sep 6, 2020 at 1:09 comment added Yemon Choi Do you have an example of a Fredholm subspace?
