The purpose of this paper is to show the relationship in all dimensions between the structural (diffraction pattern) aspect of tilings (described by \v{C}ech cohomology of the tiling space) and the spectral properties (of Hamiltonians…
In the $C^*$-algebraic setting the spectrum of any group-like element of a compact quantum group is shown to be a closed subgroup of the one-dimensional torus. A number of consequences of this fact are then illustrated, along with a loose…
A large variety of cohomology theories is derived from complex cobordism MU^*(-) by localizing with respect to certain elements or by killing regular sequences in MU_*. We study the relationship between certain pairs of such theories which…
We explore connections between our earlier work, in which we constructed spectra that interpolate between bu and HZ, and earlier work of Kuhn and Priddy on the Whitehead conjecture and of Rognes on the stable rank filtration in algebraic…
In this paper we define complex equivariant K-theory for actions of Lie groupoids using finite-dimensional vector bundles. For a Bredon-compatible Lie groupoid, this defines a periodic cohomology theory on the category of finite equivariant…
We propose the notion of a coarse cohomology theory and study the examples of coarse ordinary cohomology, coarse stable cohomotopy and of coarse cohomology theories obtained by dualizing coarse homology theories. We show that the dualizing…
In this paper we establish a direct connection between stable approximate unitary equivalence for $*$-homomorphisms and the topology of the KK-groups which avoids entirely C*-algebra extension theory and does not require nuclearity…
In 1998, Goresky, Kottwitz, and MacPherson showed that for certain projective varieties X equipped with an algebraic action of a complex torus T, the equivariant cohomology ring H_T(X) can be described by combinatorial data obtained from…
Let $B$ denote the upper triangular subgroup of $SL_2(C)$, $T$ its diagonal torus and $U$ its unipotent radical. A complex projective variety $Y$ endowed with an algebraic action of $B$ such that the fixed point set $Y^U$ is a single point,…
In this paper, we develop a quantum theory of homogeneously curved tetrahedron geometry, by applying the combinatorial quantization to the phase space of tetrahedron shapes defined in arXiv:1506.03053. Our method is based on the relation…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Let $\Lambda$ be a noetherian commutative ring annihilated by an integer invertible in $k$ and let $\ell$ be a prime number different from the characteristic of $k$. We prove that if $X$ is a…
In this expository article we give a categorical definition of the integral cohomology ring of a stack. We show that for quotient stacks the categorical cohomology may be identified with equivariant cohomology. Via this identification we…
For a topological space that is homeomorphic to a finite simplicial complex, we prove that the Bartels--Nikolaus assembly functor has a fully faithful right adjoint. Using this, we define for each such topological space $X$ a {\em Whitehead…
We compute ku^*(K(Z/p,2)) and ku_*(K(Z/p,2)), the connective KU-cohomology and connective KU-homology groups of the mod-p Eilenberg-MacLane space K(Z/p,2), using the Adams spectral sequence. We obtain a striking interaction between…
Deformation K-theory associates to each discrete group G a spectrum built from spaces of finite dimensional unitary representations of G. In all known examples, this spectrum is 2-periodic above the rational cohomological dimension of G…
We make some computations in stable motivic homotopy theory over Spec \mathbb{C}, completed at 2. Using homotopy fixed points and the algebraic K-theory spectrum, we construct a motivic analogue of the real K-theory spectrum KO. We also…
In this paper we refine a version of bivariant $K$-theory developed by Cuntz to define symmetric spectra representing the $KK$-theory of $C^\ast$-categories and discrete groupoid $C^\ast$-algebras. In both cases, the Kasparov product can be…
We extend the theory of equivariant orthogonal spectra from finite groups to profinite groups, and more generally from compact Lie groups to compact Hausdorff groups. The G-homotopy theory is "pieced together" from the G/U-homotopy theories…
We prove the conjectures of Graham-Kumar and Griffeth-Ram concerning the alternation of signs in the structure constants for torus-equivariant K-theory of generalized flag varieties G/P. These results are immediate consequences of an…
Let A be a Banach algebra and A' its complexification. In this paper we show that the homotopy fixed point set of K(A'), the topological K-theory space of A', under complex conjugation is just K(A), the topological K-theory space of A. This…
