In the first part of this series, we defined an equivariant index without assuming the group acting or the orbit space of the action to be compact. This allowed us to generalise an index of deformed Dirac operators, defined for compact…

Several formulas for computing coarse indices of twisted Dirac type operators are introduced. One type of such formulas is by composition product in $E$-theory. The other type is by module multiplications in $K$-theory, which also yields an…
