Tracial projection methods and uniform property Gamma

For a simple, separable, unital, infinite-dimensional, nuclear, stably finite C${}^{\ast }$-algebra with traces, real rank zero of the uniform tracial ultrapower of its uniform tracial completion implies uniform property Γ. This answers Problem XXI of Schafhauser, Tikuisis and White affirmatively. Independently, strict comparison implies Jiang–Su absorption for simple, separable, unital, infinite-dimensional nuclear algebras, resolving the unital Toms–Winter conjecture. Under comparison tested on traces of finite target rank, we also obtain uniform property Γ and absorption for simple, separable, nuclear, stably projectionless algebras whose densely finite traces are all bounded and have a nonempty compact normalized base.
