The partial isometry homology
groups $H_n$ defined in Power [1]
and a related chain complex homology
$CH_*$
are calculated for various triangular operator algebras, including the
disc algebra.
These invariants are closely connected
with $K$-theory. Simplicial homotopy reductions are used
to identify both $H_n$ and $CH_n$ for the lexicographic products
$A(G) \star A$ with $A(G)$ a digraph algebra and $A$ a triangular
subalgebra of the Cuntz algebra $O_m$. Specifically
$H_n (A(G) \star A) = H_n (\Delta (G)) \otimes_{{\mathbb Z}} K_0 (C^*
(A))$
and $CH_n (A(G) \star A) $ is the simplicial homology group
$ H_n (\Delta (G) ; K_0 (C^* (A)))$ with coefficients in $K_0 (C^*
(A))$.
