To each algebra over the complex numbers we associate a sequence of abelian groups in a contravariant functorial way. In degree (m-1) we have the m-summable Fredholm modules over the algebra modulo stable m-summable perturbations. These new…
Odd index pairings of $K_1$-group elements with Fredholm modules are of relevance in index theory, differential geometry and applications such as to topological insulators. For the concrete setting of operators on a Hilbert space over a…
In analogy to what happens in finite dimensions we state the Normal Form Theorem for k-singularities, introduced in the previous paper of the series. By means of that we study the local behaviour near a singularity i.e. we deduce local…
In 1970s Segal outlined proofs of two theorems relating spaces of Fredholm and self-adjoint Fredholm operators with Quillen's constructions used to define higher algebraic K-theory. In the present paper we provide detailed proofs of these…
Let $G$ be a group with a finite balanced presentation $P$. We associate a Heegaard Floer homology group $\widehat{HF}_P(G)$ with the pair $(G,P)$ based on some extra choices and technical assumptions. We show that $\widehat{HF}_P(G)$ is…
Let G be a discrete group. We give methods to compute for a generalized (co-)homology theory its values on the Borel construction (EG x X)/G of a proper G-CW-complex X satisfying certain finiteness conditions. In particular we give formulas…
Motivated by the study of the interrelation between functorial and algebraic quantum field theory, we point out that on any locally trivial bundle of compact groups, representations up to homotopy are enough to separate points by means of…
In this paper, we discuss the associated family of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ from a Riemann surface $M$ into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type which are either algebraic or totally symmetric. These…
The authors show that a wide class of Fredholm determinants arising in the representation theory of "big" groups such as the infinite-dimensional unitary group, solve Painleve equations. Their methods are based on the theory of integrable…
A discrete countable group G is matricially stable if the finite dimensional approximate unitary representations of G are perturbable to genuine representations in the point-norm topology. For large classes of groups G, we show that…
We prove that all K-homology classes of the stable (and unstable) Ruelle algebra of a Smale space have explicit Fredholm module representatives that are finitely summable on the same smooth subalgebra and with the same degree of…
For any tangle $T$ (up to isotopy) and integer $k\geq 1$ we construct a group $F(T)$ (up to isomorphism). It is the fundamental group of the configuration space of $k$ points in a horizontal plane avoiding the tangle, provided the tangle is…
An algebraic analogue of the family of Fredholm operators is introduced for the family of row and column finite matrices, dubbed "Fredholm matrices." In addition, a measure is introduced which indicates how far a Fredholm matrix is from an…
A fundamental ingredient in the noncommutative geometry program is the notion of KK-duality, often called K-theoretic Poincar\'{e} duality, that generalises Spanier-Whitehead duality. In this paper we construct a $\theta$-summable Fredholm…
We will prove the relative homotopy principle for smooth maps with singularities of a given {\cal K}-invariant class with a mild condition. We next study a filtration of the group of homotopy self-equivalences of a given manifold P by…
We give a rigorous account and prove continuity properties for the correspondence between almost flat bundles on a triangularizable compact connected space and the quasi-representations of its fundamental group. For a discrete countable…
We interpret certain equivariant Kasparov groups as equivariant representable K-theory groups. We compute these groups via a classifying space and as K-theory groups of suitable sigma-C*-algebras. We also relate equivariant vector bundles…
We use the combinatorial harmonic map theory to study the isometric actions of discrete groups on Hadamard spaces. Given a finitely generated group acting by automorphisms, properly discontinuously and cofinitely on a simplicial complex and…
In this paper we show that the $\mathrm{K}$-homology groups of a separable C*-algebra can be enriched with additional descriptive set-theoretic information, and regarded as definable groups. Using a definable version of the Universal…
Based on Morse theory for the energy functional on path spaces we develop a deformation theory for mapping spaces of spheres into orthogonal groups. This is used to show that these mapping spaces are weakly homotopy equivalent, in a stable…
