Abstract

Given a compact manifold MM and gC(M,U(l;C))g\in C^{\infty}(M,U(l;\mathbb{C})) we construct a Chern character Ch(g)\mathrm{Ch}^-(g) which lives in the odd part of the equivariant (entire) cyclic Chen-normalized bar complex C(ΩT(M×T))\underline{\mathscr{C}}(\Omega_{\mathbb{T}}(M\times \mathbb{T})) of MM, and which is mapped to the odd Bismut-Chern character under the equivariant Chen integral map. It is also shown that the assignment gCh(g)g\mapsto \mathrm{Ch}^-(g) induces a well-defined group homomorphism from the K1K^{-1} theory of MM to the odd homology group of C(ΩT(M×T))\underline{\mathscr{C}}(\Omega_{\mathbb{T}}(M\times \mathbb{T}))
