Abstract

We study torus-equivariant algebraic KK-theory of affine Schubert varieties in the perfect affine Grassmannians over Fp\mathbb{F}_p. We further compare it to the torus-equivariant Hochschild homology of perfect complexes, which has a geometric description in terms of global functions on certain fixed-point schemes. We prove that Fp\mathbb{F}_p-linearly, this comparison is an isomorphism. Our approach is quite constructive, resulting in new computations of these KK-theory rings. We establish various structural results for equivariant perfect algebraic KK-theory on the way; we believe these are of independent interest.
