A groupoid model for Rørdam's finite-infinite $C^{\ast }$-algebra

We construct a groupoid model for Rordam’s example of a simple, nuclear, separable $C^{\ast }$-algebra containing a finite and an infinite projection. This groupoid model arises from a (crossed product of a) carefully chosen model for the inductive limit construction in Rordam’s original approach, which we show to yield a Cartan subalgebra of the limit. In particular, this procedure yields a locally compact, second countable, Hausdorff, étale, amenable, minimal and topologically principal groupoid whose unit space is compact, and whose $C^{\ast }$-algebra contains an infinite and a non-zero finite projection. Hence, this groupoid is amenable, and yet does not have comparison.
