Stable rank of \(C^*\)-algebras of type I. (English) Zbl 1049.46043

Summary: In this paper, we estimate the stable rank and connected stable rank of \(C^*\)-algebras under a technical assumption on their spectra. Using this result, we obtain some stable rank formulas for type I \(C^*\)-algebras. In particular, we obtain a product formula for the stable rank of type I \(C^*\)-algebras.
