Oct 8, 2021 at 19:44 | comment | added | Robert Furber | If both inductive limits (i.e. colimits) are interpreted in the category of C$^*$-algebras, the answer is no, as already mentioned. However, if the colimit $\varinjlim A_n^{**}$ is interpreted in the category of W$^*$-algebras (with normal *-homomorphisms) the answer is yes because $({-})^{**}$ is the left adjoint to the forgetful functor from W$^*$-algebras to C$^*$-algebras. | |
