These notes are based on a lecture course given by the first author in the Sedano Winter School on K-theory held in Sedano, Spain, on January 22-27th of 2007. They aim at introducing K-theory of C^*-algebras, equivariant K-homology and…
We present 18 Introductory Lectures on K-Theory covering its basic three branches, namely topological, analytic (K-Homology) and Higher Algebraic K-Theory, 6 lectures on each branch. The skeleton of these notes was provided by the author's…
Algebraic K-theory has applications in a broad range of mathematical subjects, from number theory to functional analysis. It is also fiendishly hard to calculate. Presently there are two main inroads: motivic and cyclic homology. I've been…
These are the notes for my lectures at the Trento summer school held September 1997. The aim of the lectures is to provide an introduction to real algebraic surfaces using the minimal model program. This leads to a fairly complete…
These are lecture notes for a short course about spectral sequences that was held at M\'alaga, October 18--20 (2016), during the "Fifth Young Spanish Topologists Meeting". The approach was to illustrate the basic notions via fully computed…
These lecture notes, which were designed for the Summer School "Heegaard-Floer Homology and Khovanov Homology" in Marseilles, 29th May - 2nd June, 2006, provide an elementary introduction to Khovanov homology. The intended audience is…
This paper collects and extends the lectures I gave at the "XXIV International Fall Workshop on Geometry and Physics" held in Zaragoza (Spain) August 31 - September 4, 2015. Within these lectures I review the formulation of Quantum…
This is a survey on the topic explained in the title, for the proceedings on the K-theory 1997 summer institute in Seattle.
The cyclotomic trace of B\"okstedt-Hsiang-Madsen, the subject of B\"okstedt's lecture at the congress in Kyoto, is a map of pro-abelian groups K_*(A) -> TR_*^.(A;p) from Quillen's algebraic K-theory to a topological refinement of Connes'…
These notes were originally intended to be complementary material for an introductory course on self-similar graphs and their algebras, presented by the author at the CIMPA School ``K-theory and Operator Algebras'', held in La Plata and…
This mini-course, conducted at the XI School on Geometric, Algebraic, and Topological Methods in Quantum Field Theory held in Villa de Leyva, Colombia, provides an overview of the interconnection between generalized symmetries and…
We study a variant of algebraic K-theory and prove that it is stable and preserves module structures.
This survey paper is an expanded version of lectures given at the Clay Mathematics Academy ; see http://www.claymath.org/programs/outreach/academy/colloquium2005.php These lectures were intended to very young (and motivated) college…
This paper is concerned with the algebraic K-theory of locally convex algebras stabilized by operator ideals, and its comparison with topological K-theory. We show that the obstruction for the comparison map between algebraic and…
We generalize several comparison results between algebraic, semi-topological and topological K-theories to the equivariant case with respect to a finite group.
These are lecture notes for a 4h mini-course held in Toulouse, May 9-12th, at the thematic school on "Quantum topology and geometry". The goal of these lectures is to (a) explain some incarnations, in the last ten years, of the idea of…
Algebraic K-theory is the stable homotopy theory of homotopy theories, and it interacts with algebraic structures accordingly. In particular, we prove the Deligne Conjecture for algebraic K-theory.
We introduce a new morphism between algebraic and hermitian K-theory. The topological analog is the Adams operation in real K-theory. From this morphism, we deduce a lower bound for the higher algebraic K-theory of a ring A in terms of the…
This paper collects the notes of a serie of lectures given by the two authors during the summer school "Geometric and topological methods for Quantum Field Theory" at Villa de Leyva, Colombia, summer 2007. These lecture notes are mainly…
The paper gives a short account of the contents of "Regular Algebraic K-Theory For Groups" by the author and its connections with other homology and K-theories.
