Nuclear dimension and classification of C*-algebras associated to Smale spaces

Abstract: We show that the homoclinic C*-algebras of mixing Smale spaces are classifiable by the Elliott invariant. To obtain this result, we prove that the stable, unstable, and homoclinic C*-algebras associated to such Smale spaces have finite nuclear dimension. Our proof of finite nuclear dimension relies on Guentner, Willett, and Yu's notion of dynamic asymptotic dimension.
