In this paper, we study multiplicative structures on the K-theory of the core $A:=C^*(E)^{U(1)}$ of the C*-algebra $C^*(E)$ of a directed graph $E$. In the first part of the paper, we study embeddings $E\to E\times E$ that induce a…
A method for deforming C*-algebras is introduced, which applies to C*-algebras that can be described as the cross-sectional C*-algebra of a Fell bundle. Several well known examples of non-commutative algebras, usually obtained by deforming…
This article establishes, for an appropriate localisation of associative rings, a long exact sequence in algebraic K-theory. The main result goes as follows. Let A be an associative ring and let A-->B be the localisation with respect to a…
In this paper, we develop Leray-Serre-type spectral sequences to compute the intersection homology of the regular neighborhood and deleted regular neighborhood of the bottom stratum of a stratified PL-pseudomanifold. The E^2 terms of the…
We determine the $K$-theory of the $C^{*}$-algebra $C(SU_{-1}(2))$ and describe its spectrum. Moreover, we exhibit a continuous $C^{*}$-bundle over $[-1,0)$ whose fibre at $q$ is isomorphic to $C(SU_{q}(2))$.
Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometric realization of KK-theory for nuclear C*-algebras using…
We propose a fibre bundle formulation of the mathematical base of relativistic quantum mechanics. At the present stage the bundle form of the theory is equivalent to its conventional one, but it admits new types of generalizations in…
We recast basic topological concepts underlying differential geometry using the language and tools of noncommutative geometry. This way we characterize principal (free and proper) actions by a density condition in (multiplier) C*-algebras.…
This paper presents a comparison between two versions of Bott Periodicity Theorems: one in topological K-theory and the other in stable homotopy groups of classical groups. It begins with an introduction to K-theory, discussing vector…
Bundles of C*-algebras can be used to represent limits of physical theories whose algebraic structure depends on the value of a parameter. The primary example is the $\hbar\to 0$ limit of the C*-algebras of physical quantities in quantum…
We describe proper correspondences from graph C*-algebras to arbitrary C*-algebras by K-theoretic data. If the target C*-algebra is a graph C*-algebra as well, we may lift an isomorphism on a certain invariant to correspondences back and…
We prove new structural results for the rational homotopy type of the classifying space $B\operatorname{aut}(X)$ of fibrations with fiber a simply connected finite CW-complex $X$. We first study nilpotent covers of $B\operatorname{aut}(X)$…
We generalize the Serre-Swan theorem to non-commutative C$^{*}$-algebras. For a Hilbert C$^{*}$-module $X$ over a C$^{*}$-algebra ${\cal A}$, we introduce a hermitian vector bundle $\exx$ associated to $X$. We show that there is a linear…
Given an ample groupoid, we construct a spectral sequence with groupoid homology with integer coefficients on the second sheet, converging to the K-groups of the (reduced) groupoid C*-algebra, provided the groupoid has torsion-free…
Our main result is a generalization of Cappell's 5-dimensional splitting theorem. As an application, we analyze, up to internal s-cobordism, the smoothable splitting and fibering problems for certain 5-manifolds mapping to the circle. For…
Locally trivial bundles of $C^*$-algebras with fibre $D \otimes \mathcal{K}$ for a strongly self-absorbing $C^*$-algebra $D$ over a finite CW-complex $X$ form a group $E^1_D(X)$ that is the first group of a cohomology theory $E^*_D(X)$. In…
In this paper we study continuous bundles of C*-algebras which are non-commutative analogues of principal torus bundles. We show that all such bundles, although in general being very far away from being locally trivial bundles, are at least…
In this paper, we study equivariant Hurewicz fibrations, obtain their internal characteristics, and prove theorems on relationship between equivariant fibrations and fibrations generated by them. Local and global properties of equivariant…
Let A be a commutative unital C*-algebra and let S denote its Gelfand spectrum. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for a nondegenerate representation of A to be unitarily equivalent to a multiplicative representation on a…
We study the behaviour of analytic torsion under smooth fibrations. Namely, let F \to E \to^{f} B be a smooth fiber bundle of connected closed oriented smooth manifolds and let $V$ be a flat vector bundle over $E$. Assume that $E$ and $B$…
