Real versus complex K-theory using Kasparov’s bivariant KK-theory

نویسنده

  • Thomas Schick
چکیده

In this paper, we use the KK-theory of Kasparov to prove exactness of sequences relating the K-theory of a real C∗ -algebra and of its complexification (generalizing results of Boersema). We use this to relate the real version of the Baum-Connes conjecture for a discrete group to its complex counterpart. In particular, the complex Baum-Connes assembly map is an isomorphism if and only if the real one is, thus reproving a result of Baum and Karoubi. After inverting 2, the same is true for the injectivity or surjectivity part alone. AMS Classification 19K35, 55N15

Real versus complex K-theory using Kasparov’s bivariant KK

In this paper, we use the KK-theory of Kasparov to prove exactness of sequences relating the K-theory of a real C∗-algebra and of its complexification. We use this to relate the real version of the Baum-Connes conjecture for a discrete group to its complex counterpart. In particular, one implies the other, and, after inverting 2, the same is true for the injectivity or surjectivity part alone, ...

D-branes and Bivariant K-theory

We review various aspects of the topological classification of D-brane charges in K-theory, focusing on techniques from geometric K-homology and Kasparov’s KK-theory. The latter formulation enables an elaborate description of D-brane charge on large classes of noncommutative spaces, and a refined characterization of open string T-duality in terms of correspondences and KK-equivalence. The examp...

Finite and Torsion Kk-theories

We develop a finite KK-theory of C∗-algebras following ArlettazH.Inassaridze’s approach to finite algebraic K-theory [1] . The BrowderKaroubi-Lambre’s theorem on the orders of the elements for finite algebraic K-theory [ , ] is extended to finite KK-theory. A new bivariant theory, called torsion KK-theory is defined as the direct limit of finite KK-theories. Such bivariant K-theory has almost a...

Dualities in equivariant Kasparov theory

We study several duality isomorphisms between equivariant bivariant K-theory groups, generalising Kasparov’s first and second Poincaré duality isomorphisms. We use the first duality to define an equivariant generalisation of Lefschetz invariants of generalised self-maps. The second duality is related to the description of bivariant Kasparov theory for commutative C∗-algebras by families of elli...
