Abstract

The authors define the equi-nuclearity of uniform Roe algebras of a family of metric spaces. For a discrete metric space X with bounded geometry which is covered by a family of subspaces {Xi}i=1, if {Cu*(Xi)}i=1 are equi-nuclear and under some proper gluing conditions, it is proved that Cu*(X) is nuclear. Furthermore, it is claimed that in general, the coarse Roe algebra C*(X) is not nuclear.
