Abstract

Given a bounding class BB, we construct a bounded refinement BK()BK(-) of Quillen's KK-theory functor from rings to spaces. BK()BK(-) is a functor from weighted rings to spaces, and is equipped with a comparison map BKKBK \to K induced by "forgetting control". In contrast to the situation with BB-bounded cohomology, there is a functorial splitting BK()K()×BKrel()BK(-) \simeq K(-) \times BK^{rel}(-) where BKrel()BK^{rel}(-) is the homotopy fiber of the comparison map.
