K-Theory and Homology

We study equivariant Hermitian K-theory for representations of symplectic groups, especially $\mathrm{SL}_2$. The results are used to establish an Atiyah-Segal completion theorem for Hermitian $K$-theory and symplectic groups.

For a compact group G, we give a sufficient condition for embedding one G-equivariant vector bundle into another one and for a stable isomorphism between two such bundles to imply an isomorphism. Our criteria involve multiplicities of…

This note gives an overview of the mathematical framework underlying topological insulators, highlighting the connection to K-theory and vector bundles. We see ``real'' and ``quaternionic'' vector bundles arise naturally in the presence of…

In this article we study the first, the second and the third homology groups of the elementary group $\textrm{E}_2(A)$, where $A$ is a commutative ring. In particular, we prove a refined Bloch-Wigner type exact sequence over a semilocal…

We prove an induction theorem for the higher algebraic K-groups of group algebras $kG$ of finite groups $G$ over characteristic $p$ finite fields $k$. For a certain class of finite groups, which we call $p$-isolated, this reduces…

In this article, we explore the second integral homology, or Schur multiplier, of the special linear group ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}[1/n])$ for a positive integer $n$. We definitively calculate the group structure of $H_2({\rm…

Calegari and Venkatesh did construct, modulo small torsion, a surjection from the degree 2 homology of the rank 2 projective general linear group over a ring of algebraic integers (of odd class number, and with enough embeddings) to the 2nd…

In this article we prove various results about transferring or lifting $\mathrm{A}_\infty$-algebra structures along quasi-isomorphisms over a commutative ring.

In this paper we study the category of localizing motives $\operatorname{Mot}^{\operatorname{loc}}$ -- the target of the universal finitary localizing invariant of idempotent-complete stable categories as defined by Blumberg-Gepner-Tabuada.…

For a prime number $p$ and a $p$-quasisyntomic commutative ring $R$, Bhatt--Morrow--Scholze defined motivic filtrations on the $p$-completions of $\mathrm{THH}(R), \mathrm{TC}^{-}(R), \mathrm{TP}(R),$ and $\mathrm{TC}(R)$, with the…

An open question is whether the map $\widetilde{K_0 }\mathbb{Z} G \rightarrow \widetilde{K_0 }\mathbb{Q} G$ in reduced $K$-theory from the integral to the rational group ring is trivial for any group $G$. We will show that this is false,…

We give a description of the value of a finitary localizing invariant, such as algebraic $K$-theory, on the category of sheaves on a locally coherent space $X$. This in particular includes all spaces that arise as spectra of commutative…

This is a thorough investigation on the real $K$-theory of the sphere $S^d$ associated with the antipodal involution. We calculate the algebraic structure of real $K$-theory and united $K$-theory for all $d$, we write down explicit…

Let $G$ be a connected simply-connected simple algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$ and let $T$ be a maximal torus, $B\supset T$ a Borel subgroup and $K$ a maximal compact subgroup. Then, the product in the (algebraic) based loop group…

Unlike the Hochschild chain complex of an algebra, the Hochschild cochain complex of an algebra is not functorial. Nonetheless, we show that the Hochschild cochain complex of an algebra even a dg category is of lax functoriality, i.e.,…

We prove a localisation theorem for the K-theory of filtering subcategories of exact $\infty$-categories which subsumes the localisation theorem for stable $\infty$-categories, Quillen's localisation theorem for abelian categories, and…

In this paper, we employ quotients of Roe algebras as index containers for elliptic differential operators to study the existence problem of Riemannian metrics with positive scalar curvature on non-compact complete Riemannian manifolds. The…

We establish a connection between Cohen-Lyndon triples and equivariant homology theory, with a focus on the Baum-Connes conjecture. In the first part of this work, we establish an excision sequence for the classifying spaces for proper…

We prove a comparison result between two duality statements - Takai duality, which is implemented by the crossed product functor $- \rtimes G: KK^{G} \to KK^{\hat G}$ on equivariant Kasparov categories; and Treumann duality, which asserts…

In this article, we investigate the Schur multiplier of the special linear group $\mathrm{SL}_2(A)$ over finite commutative local rings $A$. We prove that the Schur multiplier of these groups is isomorphic to the $K$-group $K_2(A)$ whenever…
