A Comparison of Continuously Controlled and Controlled K-theory
math.KT
We define an unreduced version of the e-controlled lower $K$-theoretic groups of Ranicki and Yamasaki, and Quinn. We show that the reduced versions of our groups coincide (in the inverse limit and its first derived, $\lim^1$) with those of Ranicki and Yamasaki. We also relate the controlled groups to the continuously c...

Lifting Lie algebras over the residue field of a discrete valuation ring

Studies among other things, the question of whether a Lie algebra over Z/(p^k)Z lifts to one over Z/(p^(k+1))Z. An obstruction theory is developed and examples of Fp-Lie algebras which don't lift to Lie algebras over Z/p^2Z are discussed. An example of an application of the result: A Fp-Lie algebra L with H^3(L, ad)=0 ...

On the derived functor analogy in the Cuntz-Quillen framework for cyclic homology

Cuntz and Quillen have shown that for algebras over a field $k$ with $char(k)=0$, periodic cyclic homology may be regarded, in some sense, as the derived functor of (non-commutative) de Rham (co-)homology. The purpose of this paper is to formalize this derived functor analogy. We show that the localization ${Def}^{-1}\...

We calculate the R(G)-algebra structure on the reduced equivariant K-groups of two-dimensional spheres on which a compact Lie group G acts as involutions. In particular, the reduced equivariant K-groups are trivial if G is abelian, which shows that the previous Y. Yang's calculation in [Yan95] is not true.

Simplicial homotopy in semi-abelian categories
math.KT
We study Quillen's model category structure for homotopy of simplicial objects in the context of Janelidze, Marki and Tholen's semi-abelian categories. This model structure exists as soon as the base category A is regular Mal'tsev and has enough regular projectives; then the fibrations are the Kan fibrations of simplic...

Third Mac Lane cohomology via categorical rings
math.KT
It is proved that the third Mac Lane cohomology group of a ring R with coefficients in a bimodule B classifies categorical rings having R as the ring of isomorphism classes of objects and B as the bimodule of automorphisms of the neutral object.

Equivariant local cyclic homology and the equivariant Chern-Connes character
math.KT
We define and study equivariant analytic and local cyclic homology for smooth actions of totally disconnected groups on bornological algebras. Our approach contains equivariant entire cyclic cohomology in the sense of Klimek, Kondracki and Lesniewski as a special case and provides an equivariant extension of the local ...

Chern character for totally disconnected groups
math.KT
In this paper we construct a bivariant Chern character for the equivariant KK-theory of a totally disconnected group with values in bivariant equivariant cohomology in the sense of Baum and Schneider. We prove in particular that the complexified left hand side of the Baum-Connes conjecture for a totally disconnected gr...

The RO(G)-graded coefficients of (Z/2)^n-equivariant K-theory
math.KT
In this note, we calculate all untwisted and twisted (Z/2)^n-equivariant K-groups with compact supports of real finite-dimensional linear representations of (Z/2)^n. The question was motivated by the question of D-brane charges for orbifold type II string vacua.

Algebraic K-theory of Fredholm modules and KK-theory
math.KT
Kasparov $KK$-groups $KK(A,B)$ are represented as homotopy groups of the Pedersen-Weibel nonconnective algebraic $K$-theory spectrum of the additive category of Fredholm $(A,B)$-bimodules for $A$ and $B$, respectively, a separable and $\sigma$-unital trivially graded real or complex $C^*$-algebra acted upon by a fixed ...

Inertia and delocalized twisted cohomology
math.KT
We show that the inertia stack of a topological stack is again a topological stack. We further observe that the inertia stack of an orbispace is again an orbispace. We show how a U(1)-banded gerbe over an orbispace gives rise to a flat line bundle over its inertia stack. Via sheaf theory over topological stacks it give...

Modular Lattice for $C_{o}$-Operators
math.KT
We study modularity of the lattice Lat $(T)$ of closed invariant subspaces for a $C_0$-operator $T$ and find a condition such that Lat $(T)$ is a modular. Furthermore, we provide a quasiaffinity preserving modularity.

Comparison of spectral sequences involving bifunctors
math.KT
Suppose given functors A x A' -F-> B -G-> C between abelian categories, an object X in A and an object X' in A' such that certain conditions hold. We show that, E_1-terms exempt, the Grothendieck spectral sequence of the composition of F(X,-) and G evaluated at X' is isomorphic to the Grothendieck spectral sequence of ...

Coarse and equivariant co-assembly maps
math.KT
We study an equivariant co-assembly map that is dual to the usual Baum-Connes assembly map and closely related to coarse geometry, equivariant Kasparov theory, and the existence of dual Dirac morphisms. As applications, we prove the existence of dual Dirac morphisms for groups with suitable compactifications, that is, ...

Cyclic Cohomology and Higher Rank Lattices
math.KT
We give a new proof of the absence of non-trivial idempotents in the group ring of torsion-free cocompact lattices in SL(n,C). It is based on the following procedure. We lift the class of the trace in the cyclic cohomology of the group ring to the crossed product of the smooth functions on the Furstenberg boundary of S...

An analytic index for Lie groupoids
math.KT
For a Lie groupoid there is an analytic index morphism which takes values in the $K-$theory of the $C^*$-algebra associated to the groupoid. This is a good invariant but extracting numerical invariants from it, with the existent tools, is very difficult. In this work, we define another analytic index morphism associate...

Orbifold index and equivariant K-homology
math.KT
We consider a invariant Dirac operator D on a manifold with a proper and cocompact action of a discrete group G. It gives rise to an equivariant K-homology class [D]. We show how the index of the induced orbifold Dirac operator can be calculated from [D] via the assembly map. We further derive a formula for this index ...

Categorical aspects of bivariant K-theory

This survey article on bivariant Kasparov theory and E-theory is mainly intended for readers with a background in homotopical algebra and category theory. We approach both bivariant K-theories via their universal properties and equip them with extra structure such as a tensor product and a triangulated category structu...

Homological algebra in bivariant K-theory and other triangulated categories
math.KT
Bivariant (equivariant) K-theory is the standard setting for non-commutative topology. We may carry over various techniques from homotopy theory and homological algebra to this setting. Here we do this for some basic notions from homological algebra: phantom maps, exact chain complexes, projective resolutions, and deri...
