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…

In this review, we present a general framework for the construction of Kac-Moody (KM) algebras associated to higher-dimensional manifolds. Starting from the classical case of loop algebras on the circle $\mathbb{S}^{1}$, we extend the…

A generalized-homology bordism-theory is constructed, such that for certain manifold homotopy stratified sets (MHSS; Quinn-spaces) homeomorphism-invariant geometric fundamental-classes exist. The construction combines three ideas: Firstly,…

In this paper we study cobordism categories consisting of manifolds which are endowed with geometric structure. Examples of such geometric structures include symplectic structures, flat connections on principal bundles, and complex…

We use homological ideals in triangulated categories to get a sufficient criterion for a pair of subcategories in a triangulated category to be complementary. We apply this criterion to construct the Baum-Connes assembly map for locally…

By introducing a notion of smooth connection for unbounded $KK$-cycles, we show that the Kasparov product of such cycles can be defined directly, by an algebraic formula. In order to achieve this it is necessary to develop a framework of…

We geometrically construct a homology theory that generalizes the Euler characteristic mod 2 to objects in the unoriented cobordism ring N_*(X) of a topological space X. This homology theory Eh_* has coefficients Z/2 in every nonnegative…

In this paper we present the construction of explicit quasi-isomorphisms that compute the cyclic homology and periodic cyclic homology of crossed-product algebras associated with (discrete) group actions. In the first part we deal with…

We consider a smooth groupoid of the form \Sigma\rtimes\Gamma where \Sigma is a Riemann surface and \Gamma a discrete pseudogroup acting on \Sigma by local conformal diffeomorphisms. After defining a K-cycle on the crossed product…

Given a compact, connected Lie group $K$, we use principal $K$-bundles to construct manifolds with prescribed finite-dimensional algebraic models. Conversely, let $M$ be a compact, connected, smooth manifold which supports an almost free…

We describe a natural isomorphism between the set of equivalence classes of pseudocycles and the integral homology groups of a smooth manifold. Our arguments generalize to settings well-suited for applications in enumerative algebraic…

We construct the Schubert basis of the torus-equivariant K-homology of the affine Grassmannian of a simple algebraic group G, using the K-theoretic NilHecke ring of Kostant and Kumar. This is the K-theoretic analogue of a construction of…

In this work a thorough study of a number of specific supersymmetric sigma-models with extended supersymmetry is performed within the context of generalised complex geometry. More specifically the supersymmetric Wess-Zumino-Witten model on…

We express the signature ${\rm Sign}(SP^m_G(M))$ of the symmetric product $SP^n(M)$ of an (open) surface $M$ in terms of the cycle index $Z(G;\bar x)$ of $G$, a polynomial which originally appeared in P{\' o}lya enumeration theory of…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a closed connected subgroup. Assume that the order of any torsion element in the integral cohomology of $G$ and $K$ is invertible in a given principal ideal domain $k$. It is known that in…

The paper is devoted to the problem when a map from some closed connected manifold to an aspherical closed manifold approximately fibers, i.e., is homotopic to Manifold Approximate Fibration. We define obstructions in algebraic K-theory.…

Orbits of coadjoint representations of classical compact Lie groups have a lot of applications. They appear in representation theory, geometrical quantization, theory of magnetism, quantum optics etc. As geometric objects the orbits were…

We compute the cycle index sum of the symmetric group action on the homology of the configuration spaces of points in a Euclidean space with the condition that no $k$ of them are equal.

Consider the infinite dimensional flag manifold $LK/T$ corresponding to the simple Lie group $K$ of rank $l$ and with maximal torus $T$. We show that, for $K$ of type $A$, $B$ or $C$, if we endow the space $H^*(LK/T)\otimes…

We give the definition of a kind of building I for a symmetrizable Kac-Moody group over a field K endowed with a dicrete valuation and with a residue field containing C. Due to some bad properties, we call this I a hovel. Nevertheless I has…
