Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a connected Lie subgroup. In this paper, we collect an assortment of results on equivariant formality of the isotropy action of $K$ on $G/K$. If the isotropy action of $K$ on $G/K$ is…

Let G be a compact Lie-group, X a compact G-CW-complex. We define equivariant geometric K-homology groups K^G_*(X), using an obvious equivariant version of the (M,E,f)-picture of Baum-Douglas for K-homology. We define explicit natural…

We completely characterize the pairs of connected Lie groups $G > K$ such that $\mathrm{rank}(G) - \mathrm{rank}(K) = 1$ and the left action of $K$ on $G/K$ is equivariantly formal. The analysis requires us to correct and extend an existing…

We show that the isotropy action of a homogeneous space $G/K$, where $G$ and $K$ are compact, connected Lie groups and $K$ is defined by an automorphism on $G$, is equivariantly formal and that $(G, K)$ is a Cartan pair.

In this paper we study a natural decomposition of $G$-equivariant $K$-theory of a proper $G$-space, when $G$ is a Lie group with a compact normal subgroup $A$ acting trivially. Our decomposition could be understood as a generalization of…

Equivariant $K$-theory is a generalized equivariant cohomology theory which is a hybrid of the $K$-theory of a topological space and the representation theory of the group acting on it. In this article, we review the basics of equivariant…
