KK-duality for self-similar groupoid actions on graphs.

We extend Nekrashevych's KK-duality for C^*-algebras of regular, recurrent, contracting self-similar group actions to regular, contracting self-similar groupoid actions on a graph, removing the recurrence condition entirely and generalising from a finite alphabet to a finite graph. More precisely, given a regular and contracting self-similar groupoid (G,E) acting faithfully on a finite directed graph E, we associate two C^*-algebras, \mathcal {O}(G,E) and \widehat {\mathcal {O}}(G,E), to it and prove that they are strongly Morita equivalent to the stable and unstable Ruelle C*-algebras of a Smale space arising from a Wieler solenoid of the self-similar limit space. That these algebras are Spanier-Whitehead dual in KK-theory follows from the general result for Ruelle algebras of irreducible Smale spaces proved by Kaminker, Putnam, and the last author.
