A central question in equivariant algebraic K-theory asks whether there exists an equivariant K-theory machine from genuine symmetric monoidal G-categories to orthogonal G-spectra that preserves equivariant algebraic structures. We answer…
Let G be a compact Lie group and LG its associated loop group. The main result of this manuscript is a surjectivity theorem from the equivariant K-theory of a Hamiltonian LG-space onto the integral K-theory of its Hamiltonian LG-quotient.…
Toric orbifolds are a topological generalization of projective toric varieties associated to simplicial fans. We introduce some sufficient conditions on the combinatorial data associated to a toric orbifold to ensure the existence of an…
This paper contains two results concerning the equivariant K-theory of toric varieties. The first is a formula for the equivariant K-groups of an arbitrary affine toric variety, generalizing the known formula for smooth ones. In fact, this…

We define and discuss G-formality for certain spaces endowed with an action by a compact Lie group. This concept is essentially formality of the Borel construction of the space in a category of commutative differential graded algebras over…
Twisted K-theory has received much attention recently in both mathematics and physics. We describe some models of twisted K-theory, both topological and geometric. Then we state a theorem which relates representations of loop groups to…
We use localization formulas in the theory of equivariant cohomology to rederive the wall crossing formulas of Li-Liu and Okonek-Teleman for Seiberg-Witten invariants.
We state a precise conjectural isomorphism between localizations of the equivariant quantum K-theory ring of a flag variety and the equivariant K-homology ring of the affine Grassmannian, in particular relating their Schubert bases and…
For a closed locally symmetric space M=\Gamma\G/K and a representation of G we consider the push-forward of the fundamental class in the homology of the linear group and a related invariant in algebraic K-theory. We discuss the…
Commutative $d$-torsion $K$-theory is a variant of topological $K$-theory constructed from commuting unitary matrices of order dividing $d$. Such matrices appear as solutions of linear constraint systems that play a role in the study of…
Let $G$ be a product of unitary groups and let $(M,\omega)$ be a compact symplectic manifold with Hamiltonian $G$-action. We prove an equivariant formality result for any complex-oriented cohomology theory $\mathbb{E}^*$ (in particular,…
We use the geometry of the space of fields for gauged supersymmetric mechanics to construct the twisted differential equivariant K-theory of a manifold with an action by a finite group.
We study a tentative generally covariant quantum field theory, denoted the T-Theory, as a tool to investigate the consistency of quantum general relativity. The theory describes the gravitational field and a minimally coupled scalar field;…
Let $\mathcal{G}$ be an algebraic quantum group. We introduce an equivariant algebraic $kk$-theory for $\mathcal{G}$-module algebras. We study an adjointness theorem related with smash product and trivial action. We also discuss a duality…
Billey and Braden defined a geometric pattern map on flag manifolds which extends the generalized pattern map of Billey and Postnikov on Weyl groups. The interaction of this torus equivariant map with the Bruhat order and its action on line…
We consider twisted equivariant K--theory for actions of a compact Lie group $G$ on a space $X$ where all the isotropy subgroups are connected and of maximal rank. We show that the associated rational spectral sequence \`a la Segal has a…
A cohomological study is made of an equivariant map betwen the configuration space of n points in space and the flag manifold of U(n).
We study equivariant Hermitian K-theory for representations of symplectic groups, especially $\mathrm{SL}_2$. The results are used to establish an Atiyah-Segal completion theorem for Hermitian $K$-theory and symplectic groups.
This survey article on relative homological algebra in bivariant K-thoery is mainly intended for readers with a background knowledge in triangulated categories. We briefly recall the general theory of relative homological algebra in…
