Abstract

It is shown that topological freeness of Rieffel’s induced representation functor implies that any C*-algebra generated by a faithful covariant representation of a Hilbert bimodule X over a C*-algebra A is canonically isomorphic to the crossed product A X ℤ. An ideal lattice description and a simplicity criterion for A X ℤ are established.
