K-theoretic duality for shifts of finite type
C*-algebras generalizing Cuntz-Krieger algebras can be associated to
hyperbolic homeomorphisms of compact metric spaces. They satisfy a
non-commutative form of Spanier-Whitehead duality with respect to K-theory. We
prove this for the case of subshifts of finite type. The special feature of the
present situation is that the constructions are all done on the full Fock space
and are very explicit, while the general theorem requires much more abstract
machinery.Comment: 23 pages, Latex fil
