Abstract

Recently a new invariant of K-theoretic nature has emerged which is potentially very useful for the study of symbolic systems. We give an outline of the theory behind this invariant. Then we demonstrate the relevance and power of the invariant, focusing on the families of substitution minimal systems and Toeplitz flows.
