We provide descriptions of the Whitehead groups, and the algebraic $K$-theory groups, of the fundamental group of a connected, oriented, closed $3$-manifold in terms of Whitehead groups of their finite subgroups and certain Nil-groups. The…

A reconstruction theorem for genus 0 gravitational quantum cohomology and quantum K-theory is proved. A new linear equivalence in the Picard group of the moduli space of genus 0 stable maps relating the pull-backs of line bundles from the…

We prove that for torsion-free amenable ample groupoids, an isomorphism in groupoid homology induced by an \'etale correspondence yields an isomorphism in the K-theory of the associated $\mathrm{C}^\ast$-algebras. We apply this to extend X.…

We formulate a Yang-Mills action principle for noncommutative connections on an endomorphism algebra of a vector bundle. It is shown that there is an influence of the topology of the vector bundle onto the structure of the vacuums of the…

We generalize the Li-Yang notion of self-similar $k$-graph $(G,\Lambda)$ and its $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$ to any finitely aligned $k$-graph $\Lambda$. We then introduce an inverse semigroup model for $\mathcal{O}_{G,\Lambda}$…

This monograph studies $KK$-theory in its unbounded model. The central object is the $KK$-bordism group obtained by imposing the $KK$-bordism relation on unbounded $KK$-cycles. In the paradigm of noncommutative geometry, an unbounded…

The outlines of a "Galois theory" for bimeromorphic geometry is here developed, via the study of model-theoretic definable binding groups in the theory CCM of compact complex spaces. As an application, a structure theorem about principal…

Applications to quantum gravity of some results in C*-algebras are developed. We open by describing why algebra may be an integral aspect of quantum gravity. By interpreting the inner automorphisms of a C*-algebra as families of parallel…

In this paper, we initiate the study of algebraic K-theory for non-commutative $\Gamma$-semirings, extending the classical constructions of Grothendieck and Bass to this setting. We first establish the categorical foundations by…

We define and study the theory of derivation-based connections on a recently introduced class of bimodules over an algebra which reduces to the category of modules whenever the algebra is commutative. This theory contains, in particular, a…

We prove an analogue of the Baum-Connes conjecture for free orthogonal quantum groups. More precisely, we show that these quantum groups have a $ \gamma $-element and that $ \gamma = 1 $. It follows that free orthogonal quantum groups are $…

We study the quantum groups appearing via models $C(G)\subset M_K(C(X))$ which are "stationary", in the sense that the Haar integration over $G$ is the functional $tr\otimes\int_X$. Our results include a number of generalities, notably with…

Let $G$ be the universal Chevalley-Demazure group scheme corresponding to a reduced irreducible root system of rank $\geq 2$, and let $R$ be a commutative ring. We analyze the linear representations $\rho \colon G(R)^+ \to GL_n (K)$ over an…

A survey of the applications of the noncommutative Cohn localization of rings to the topology of manifolds with infinite fundamental group, with particular emphasis on the algebraic K- and L-theory of generalized free products.

We formulate a version of Baum-Connes' conjecture for a discrete quantum group, building on our earlier work (\cite{GK}). Given such a quantum group $\cla$, we construct a directed family $\{\cle_F \}$ of $C^*$-algebras ($F$ varying over…

We give an operator algebraic model for the first group of the unit spectrum $gl_1(KU)$ of complex topological K-theory, i.e. $[X, BGL_1(KU)]$, by bundles of stabilized infinite Cuntz C*-algebras $O_{\infty} \otimes \K$. We develop similar…

We compute K-theory for the reduced group C*-algebras of generalized Lamplighter groups.

In this paper we investigate arithmetic properties of automorphic forms on the group G' = GL_m/D, for a central division-algebra D over an arbitrary number field F. The results of this article are generalizations of results in the split…

Generalized differential cohomology theories, in particular differential K-theory (often called "smooth K-theory"), are becoming an important tool in differential geometry and in mathematical physics. In this survey, we describe the…

In this note we set a configuration space description of the equivariant connective K-homology groups with coefficients in a unital C*-algebra for proper actions. Over this model we define a connective assembly map and prove that in this…
