Homotopy Invariance of $K$-groups using Grayson's Technique

K-Theory and Homology 2025-08-11 v2

Abstract

Homotopy invariance of KK-theory has always been a point of interest. In this article, with the help of the generators of NilKK-groups using Grayson's technique, it is shown that if RR is a Pr\"{u}fer domain, then Kn(R)Kn(R[s])K_n(R) \cong K_n(R[s]) for all n>0.n>0. This is a specific case of the already published work of the author and Vivek Sadhu. However, contrary to the method used before, we specifically prove the isomorphism by showing that NilKK-groups vanish.
