Let X be a compact metric space and let {Lambda} be a Zk (k ≥ 1) action on X. We give a solution to a version of Voiculescu's problem of AF-embedding: The crossed product C(X) {rtimes}{Lambda} Zk can be embedded into a unital simple AF-algebra if and only if X admits a strictly positive {Lambda}-invariant Borel probability measure. Let C be a unital AH-algebra, let G be a finitely generated abelian group and let {Lambda} : G -> Aut(C) be a monomorphism. We show that C {rtimes}{Lambda} G can be embedded into a unital simple AF-algebra if and only if C admits a faithful {Lambda}-invariant tracial state.
