متن کاملCyclic Cohomology and Higher Rank Lattices
We review topologically Nistor’s computation of the homogeneous part of the periodic cyclic cohomology of crossed products Γ⋉A of torsion-free discrete groups Γ with a complex Γ-algebra A. We use periodic cyclic cohomology associated to bornological algebras. Let G be a complex connected semisimple Lie group and B be a minimal parabolic subgroup of G. Applied to torsion-free discrete subgroups ...
متن کاملThe Periodic Cyclic Homology of Crossed Products of Finite Type Algebras
We study the periodic cyclic homology groups of the cross-product of a finite type algebra A by a discrete group Γ. In case A is commutative and Γ is finite, our results are complete and given in terms of the singular cohomology of the sets of fixed points. These groups identify our cyclic homology groups with the “orbifold cohomology” of the underlying (algebraic) orbifold. The proof is based ...
متن کاملBivariant Hopf Cyclic Cohomology
For module algebras and module coalgebras over an arbitrary bialgebra, we define two types of bivariant cyclic cohomology groups called bivariant Hopf cyclic cohomology and bivariant equivariant cyclic cohomology. These groups are defined through an extension of Connes’ cyclic category Λ. We show that, in the case of module coalgebras, bivariant Hopf cyclic cohomology specializes to Hopf cyclic...
متن کاملOn the Holomorph of a Discrete Group
Abstract. The holomorph of a discrete group G is the universal semi-direct product of G. We construct a resolution for Hol(Zpr ) for every prime p, where Zm denotes a cyclic group of order m, and use it to compute the integer homology and mod p cohomology of Hol(Zpr ) (this computation is long and is omitted here, but will appear in [V]). Also, we study maps of holomorphs of groups and maps of ...
