K-Theory and Homology
It is interesting to know, how far we can generalize the notion of a group-valued cocycle keeping the property to determine a bundle. We find a generalization for pairs of cocycles and show how these generalized pairs of cocycles can still…
Vorst and latter Dayton-Weibel proved that K_n-regularity implies K_(n-1)-regularity. In this note we generalize this result from (commutative) rings to differential graded categories and from algebraic K-theory to any functor which is…
We present news proofs of the additivity, resolution and cofinality theorems for the algebraic $K$-theory of exact categories. These proofs are entirely algebraic, based on Grayson's presentation of higher algebraic $K$-groups via binary…
Recent discoveries make it possible to compute the K-theory of certain rings from their cyclic homology and certain versions of their cdh-cohomology. We extend the work of G. Corti\~nas et al. who calculated the K-theory of, in addition to…
We describe the Hochschild cohomology ring for one of the two self-injective algebras of tree class $E_6$ in terms of generators and relations.
Let $X$ be an integral affine or projective hypersurface over a field $F$ of characteristic $p>0$, and let $F(X)$ denote its function field. In a recent article, Dolphin and Hoffmann obtained an explicit description of the kernel of the…
Jake Goodman and Ulrich Kr\"ahmer have recently shown that a twisted Calabi-Yau algebra $A$ with modular automorphism $\sigma$ and dimension $d$ can be "untwisted," in the sense that the Ore extensions $A[X;\sigma]$ and $A[X^{\pm1};\sigma]$…
We show that every sheaf on the site of smooth manifolds with values in a stable (infinity,1)-category (like spectra or chain complexes) gives rise to a differential cohomology diagram and a homotopy formula, which are common features of…
We develop deformation theory of algebras over quadratic operads where the parameter space is a commutative local algebra. We also give a construction of a distinguised deformation of an algebra over a quadratic operad with a complete local…
In Part I we show that the classical Koszul braces, as well as their non-commutative counterparts constructed recently by Borjeson, are the twistings of the trivial L-infinity- (resp. A-infinity-) algebra by a specific automorphism. This…
Let $T$ be a compact torus and $(M,\omega)$ a Hamiltonian $T$-space. We give a new proof of the $K$-theoretic analogue of the Kirwan surjectivity theorem in symplectic geometry by using the equivariant version of the Kirwan map introduced…
The main purpose of the present article is to establish the real case of "Karoubi's conjecture" in algebraic K-theory. The complex case was proved in 1990-91 by the second author and Andrei Suslin. Compared to the case of complex algebras,…
We develop equivariant KK-theory for locally compact groupoid actions by Morita equivalences on real and complex graded C*-algebras. Functoriality with respect to generalised morphisms and Bott periodicity are discussed. We introduce…
This thesis establishes the equivalence of Grayson and Friedlander-Suslin spectral sequences, that was previously only known for the respective E_2-terms. We develop the necessary techniques regarding K_0-presheaves of spectra, building on…
In this paper we consider the problem of Galois descent for suitably completed algebraic K-theory of fields. One of the main results is a suitable form of rigidity for Borel-style generalized equivariant cohomology with respect to certain…
We introduce a method to explicitly determine the Farrell-Tate cohomology of discrete groups. We apply this method to the Coxeter triangle and tetrahedral groups as well as to the Bianchi groups, i.e. PSL_2 over the ring of integers in an…
We show that the higher Grothendieck-Witt groups, a.k.a. algebraic hermitian K-groups, are represented by an infinite orthogonal Grassmannian in the A1-homotopy category of smooth schemes over a regular base for which 2 is a unit in the…
In this paper we prove a result which establishes an equivalence between the representational assembly conjecture proposed by the author and a rigidity question, in the case of Galois groups which are pro-l groups. In additional work with…
In this paper we introduce a common framework for describing the topological part of the Baum-Connes conjecture for a wide class of groups. We compute the Bredon homology for groups with aspherical presentation, one-relator quotients of…
The aim of this paper is to show how zeta functions and excision in cyclic cohomology may be combined to obtain index theorems. In the first part, we obtain a local index formula for "abstract elliptic pseudodifferential operators"…
