Relative Pairing in Cyclic Cohomology and Divisor Flows

چکیده
We show that Melrose’s divisor flow and its generalizations by Lesch and Pflaum are invariants of K-theory classes for algebras of parametric pseudodifferential operators on a closed manifold, obtained by pairing the relative K-theory modulo the symbols with the cyclic cohomological character of a relative cycle constructed out of the regularized operator trace together with its symbolic boundary. This representation gives a clear and conceptual explanation to all the essential features of the divisor flow – its homotopy nature, additivity and integrality. It also provides a cohomological formula for the spectral flow along a smooth path of self-adjoint elliptic first order differential operators, between any two invertible such operators on a closed manifold.

A Pairing between Super Lie-rinehart and Periodic Cyclic Homology
We consider a pairing producing various cyclic Hochschild cocycles, which led Alain Connes to cyclic cohomology. We are interested in geometrical meaning and homological properties of this pairing. We define a non-trivial pairing between the homology of a Lie-Rinehart (super-)algebra with coefficients in some partial traces and relative periodic cyclic homology. This pairing generalizes the ind...
متن کاملConnes-Chern character in relative K-homology
Lecture 1 (Pflaum): Title: Relative cohomology and its pairings Relative cyclic cohomology theory and its pairings turned out to be a powerful tool to explain crucial properties of certain invariants in global analysis such as for example the divisor flow. In this talk, the homological foundations for pairings in relative cyclic cohomology will be explained. Moreover, the relative Chern-charact...
متن کاملANNIHILATOR OF LOCAL COHOMOLOGY MODULES UNDER THE RING EXTENSION R⊂R[X]
Let R be a commutative Noetherian ring, I an ideal of R and M a non-zero R-module. In this paper we calculate the extension of annihilator of local cohomology modules H^t_I(M), t≥0, under the ring extension R⊂R[X] (resp. R⊂R[[X]]). By using this extension we will present some of the faithfulness conditions of local cohomology modules, and show that if the Lynch's conjecture, i...
متن کاملCyclic Cohomology of Hopf Module Algebras
We define an equivariant K0-theory for Yetter-Drinfeld algebras over a Hopf algebra with an invertible antipode. We show that there exists a pairing, generalizing Connes’ pairing, between this theory and a suitably defined Hopf algebra equivariant cyclic cohomology theory.
متن کاملEquivariant Cyclic Cohomology of Hopf Module Algebras
We introduce an equivariant version of cyclic cohomology for Hopf module algebras. For any H-module algebra A, where H is a Hopf algebra with S2 = idH we define the cocyclic module C ♮ H(A) and we find its relation with cyclic cohomology of crossed product algebra A ⋊ H. We define K 0 (A), the equivariant K-theory group of A, and its pairing with cyclic and periodic cyclic cohomology of C H(A).
