We make explicit Poincar\'{e} duality for the equivariant $K$-theory of equivariant complex projective spaces. The case of the trivial group provides a new approach to the $K$-theory orientation.

We extend the notion of Poincar\'e duality in KK-theory to the setting of quantum group actions. An important ingredient in our approach is the replacement of ordinary tensor products by braided tensor products. Along the way we discuss…

Let $G$ be a linear Lie group acting properly and isometrically on a $G$-spin$^c$ manifold $M$ with compact quotient. We show that Poincar\'e duality holds between $G$-equivariant $K$-theory of $M$, defined using finite-dimensional…

We study several duality isomorphisms between equivariant bivariant K-theory groups, generalising Kasparov's first and second Poincare duality isomorphisms. We use the first duality to define an equivariant generalisation of Lefschetz…

In this paper we consider the Baum-Connes correspondence for the affine and extended affine Weyl groups of a compact connected semisimple Lie group. We show that the Baum-Connes correspondence in this context arises from Langlands duality…

For a large class of word hyperbolic groups G the cross product C^*-algebra arising from the action of G on its Gromov boundary is shown to satisfy Poincare duality in K-theory. This class strictly contains fundamental groups of compact,…

This paper explores further the connection between Langlands duality and T-duality for compact simple Lie groups, which appeared in work of Daenzer-Van Erp and Bunke-Nikolaus. We show that Langlands duality gives rise to isomorphisms of…

Theories with General Relativity as a sub-sector exhibit enhanced symmetries upon dimensional reduction, which is suggestive of ``exotic dualities''. Upon inclusion of time-like directions in the reductions one can dualize to theories in…

The compact, connected Lie group $E_6$ admits two forms: simply connected and adjoint type. As we previously established, the Baum-Connes isomorphism relates the two Langlands dual forms, giving a duality between the equivariant K-theory of…

In this paper we address the relation between the orbifold fundamental group and the topology of the underlying space. In particular, under the assumption that the orbifold fundamental group is equal to the fundamental group of the…

We construct and study in detail various dual pairs acting on some Fock representations between a finite dimensional Lie group and a completed infinite rank affine algebra associated to an infinite affine Cartan matrix. We give explicit…

For G an almost-connected Lie group, we study G-equivariant index theory for proper co-compact actions with various applications, including obstructions to and existence of G-invariant Riemannian metrics of positive scalar curvature. We…

Let G be a reductive group; in this note we give an interpretation of the dynamical Weyl group of of the Langlands dual group $\check{G}$ defined by Etingof and Varchenko in terms of the geometry of the affine Grassmannian Gr of G. In this…

We prove a Poincare-Alexander-Lefschetz duality theorem for rational torus-equivariant cohomology and rational homology manifolds. We allow non-compact and non-orientable spaces. We use this to deduce certain short exact sequences in…

We walk out the landscape of K-theoretic Poincare Duality for finite algebras. It paves the way to get continuum Dirac operators from discrete noncommutative manifolds.

We characterise integral Poincar\'e duality moment-angle complexes $\mathcal{Z}_{\mathcal{K}}$ in combinatorial terms of the Fan-Wang duality of the simplicial complex $\mathcal{K}$, and consequently in algebraic terms of the Gorenstein…

We study relation between left and right adjoint functors to the precomposition functor. As a cosnequence we obtain various dualities in the Ext-groups in the category of strict polynomial functors.

We associate to a pseudomanifold $X$ with isolated singularities a differentiable groupoid $G$ which plays the role of the tangent space of $X$. We construct a Dirac element $D$ and a Dual Dirac element $\lambda$ such that $D$ and $\lambda$…

We first compute the denominator formulas for quantum affine algebras of all exceptional types. Then we prove the isomorphisms among Grothendieck rings of categories $C_Q^{(t)}$ $(t=1,2,3)$, $\mathscr{C}_{\mathscr{Q}}^{(1)}$ and…

Given a simple connected compact Lie group $K$ and a maximal torus $T$ of $K$, the Weyl group $W=N_K(T)/T$ naturally acts on $T$. First, we use the combinatorics of the (extended) affine Weyl group to provide an explicit $W$-equivariant…
