Abstract
Suppose that is a -Banach algebra over or , is a finite dimensional compact metric space, is a standard principal -bundle, and is the associated algebra of sections. We produce a spectral sequence which converges to with [E^2_{-p,q} \cong \check{H}^p(X ; \pi_q(GL_o B)).] A related spectral sequence converging to (the real or complex topological -theory) allows us to conclude that if is Bott-stable, (i.e., if is an isomorphism for all ) then so is .
