We establish a general local formula computing the topological anomaly of gauge theories in the framework of non-commutative geometry.

An odd index theorem for higher odd Chern characters of crossed product algebras is proved. It generalizes the Noether-Gohberg-Krein index theorem. Furthermore, a local formula for the associated cyclic cocycle is provided. When applied to…

We study the topological characterization of the energy gaps in general two-dimensional quasiperiodic systems consisting of multiple periodicities, represented by twisted two-dimensional materials. We show that every single gap is uniquely…

Topological invariants are global properties of the ground-state wave function, typically defined as winding numbers in reciprocal space. Over the years, a number of topological markers in real space have been introduced, allowing to map…

Products, multiplicative Chern characters, and finite coefficients, are unarguably among the most important tools in algebraic K-theory. Although they admit numerous different constructions, they are not yet fully understood at the…

In this paper we compute the K-theory (algebraic and topological) and entire periodic cyclic homology for compact quantum groups, define Chern characters between them and show that the Chern characters in both topological and algebraic…

Non-abelian Chern-Simons theories coupled to fermions are known to provide an interesting class of non-supersymmetric conformal fixed points \cite{Giombi:2011kc}. These theories, particularly those based on bifundamental matter, are…

We report in this survey some new results concerning noncommutative Chern characters: construction and the cases when they are exactly computed. The major result indicates some clear relation of these noncommutative objects and their…

We prove the multiplicative property of localized Chern characters. As a direct consequence, a localized Chern character gives rise to a ring homomorphism from the K-group of periodic complexes to the bivariant Chow cohomology group. As an…

We introduce a novel gauge-invariant, quantized interband index in two-dimensional (2D) multiband systems. It provides a bulk topological classification of a submanifold of parameter space (e.g., an electron valley in a Brillouin zone), and…

In this paper, we revise the concept of noncommutative vector fields introduced previously in Ref. [1,2], extending the framework, adding new results and clarifying the old ones. Using appropriate algebraic tools certain shortcomings in the…
