Recently it has been shown that D-branes in orientifolds are not always described by equivariant Real K-theory. In this paper we define a previously unstudied twisted version of equivariant Real K-theory which gives the D-brane spectrum for…

Results in the preliminary version have been strengthed. In addition, Batyrev's conjectural formula for quantum cohomology of projective bundles associated to direct sum of line bundles over $\Pee^n$ is partially verified.

In this paper, we determine the connective K-cohomology with reality of elementary abelian $2$-groups as a module over $\mathbb{Z}[v_1,a]$, where $v_1$ is the equivariant Bott class and $a$ the Euler class of the sign representation. This…

In this paper, a notion of a principal $2$-bundle over a Lie groupoid has been introduced. For such principal $2$-bundles, we produced a short exact sequence of VB-groupoids, namely, the Atiyah sequence. Two notions of connection structures…

Classification theory and the study of projective varieties which are covered by rational curves of minimal degrees naturally leads to the study of families of singular rational curves. Since families of arbitrarily singular curves are hard…

We establish the Thom isomorphism in twisted K-theory for any real vector bundle and develop the push-forward map in twisted K-theory for any differentiable proper map $f: X\to Y$ (not necessarily K-oriented). The push-forward map…

In this paper, we study the K-theory on higher modules in spectral algebraic geometry. We relate the K-theory of an $\infty$-category of finitely generated projective modules on certain $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-rings with the K-theory of an…

In the present paper we describe the action of (not necessarily line) bundles of finite order on the $K$-functor in terms of classifying spaces. This description might provide with an approach for more general twistings in $K$-theory than…

Let $V$ be an algebraic variety over $\mathbb R$. The purpose of this paper is to compare its algebraic Witt group $W(V)$ with a new topological invariant $WR(V_{\mathbb C})$, based on symmetric forms on Real vector bundles (in the sense of…

We give a systematic account of the various pictures of KK-theory for real C*-algebras, proving natural isomorphisms between the groups that arise from each picture. As part of this project, we develop the universal properties of KK-theory,…

We define united K-theory for real C*-algebras, generalizing Bousfield's topological united K-theory. United K-theory incorporates three functors -- real K-theory, complex K-theory, and self-conjugate K-theory -- and the natural…

A group action on the input ring or category induces an action on the algebraic $K$-theory spectrum. However, a shortcoming of this naive approach to equivariant algebraic $K$-theory is, for example, that the map of spectra with $G$-action…

We define united KK-theory for real C*-algebras A and B such that A is separable and B is sigma-unital, extending united K-theory in the sense that KK\crt(\R, B) = K\crt(B). United KK-theory contains real, complex, and self-conjugate…

This is a continuation of the authors' previous work [math.AT/9910001] on classification of equivariant complex vector bundles over a circle. In this paper we classify equivariant real vector bundles over a circle with a compact Lie group…

In this paper we introduce and study some mathematical structures on top of transitive Lie algebroids in order to formulate gauge theories in terms of generalized connections and their curvature: metrics, Hodge star operator and integration…

For T an abelian compact Lie group, we give a description of T-equivariant K-theory with complex coefficients in terms of equivariant cohomology. In the appendix we give applications of this by extending results of Chang-Skjelbred and…

The principal result of this note is the existence of a complex topological orientation for Atiyah-Segal $\mathbb{T}$-equivariant K-theory which indexes the projective space of lines in complex (n+1)-space by the Fourier expansion $1 + q +…

This work is devoted to the study of the foundations of quantum K-theory, a K-theoretic version of quantum cohomology theory. In particular, it gives a deformation of the ordinary K-ring K(X) of a smooth projective variety X, analogous to…

The goal of the present paper is the calculation of the equivariant twisted K-theory of a compact Lie group which acts on itself by conjugations, and elements of a TQFT-structure on the twisted K-groups. These results are originally due to…

We define a genuine $\mathbb{Z}/2$-equivariant real algebraic $K$-theory spectrum $KR(A)$, for every genuine $\mathbb{Z}/2$-equivariant spectrum $A$ equipped with a compatible multiplicative structure. This construction extends the real…
