Consider a minimal and free topological dynamical system (X, \mathbb Zd). It is shown that zero mean dimension of (X, \mathbb Zd) is characterized by \mathcal Z-absorption of the crossed product C*-algebra A=C(X) \rtimes \mathbb Zd, where \mathcal Z is the Jiang-Su algebra. In fact, among other conditions, the following are shown to be equivalent: (1) (X, \mathbb Zd) has the small boundary property. (2) A ≅ A ⊗ \mathcal Z. (3) A has uniform property Γ. (4) l^∞(A)/J2, ω, T(A) has real rank zero. The same statement also holds for unital simple AH algebras with diagonal maps.
