Abstract

We completely classify type III factor representations of Cuntz–Krieger algebras associated with quasi-free states up to unitary equivalence. Furthermore, we realize these representations on concrete Hilbert spaces without using GNS construction. Free groups and their type II1 factor representations are used in these realizations.
