Let $M$ be an oriented even-dimensional Riemannian manifold on which a discrete group $\Gamma$ of orientation-preserving isometries acts freely, so that the quotient $X=M/\Gamma$ is compact. We prove a vanishing theorem for a half-kernel of…

We consider a invariant Dirac operator D on a manifold with a proper and cocompact action of a discrete group G. It gives rise to an equivariant K-homology class [D]. We show how the index of the induced orbifold Dirac operator can be…

We revisit the construction of signature classes in C*-algebra K-theory, and develop a variation that allows us to prove equality of signature classes in some situations involving homotopy equivalences of noncompact manifolds that are only…

We introduce a $\mathbb{C}/\mathbb{Z}$-valued invariant of a foliated manifold with a stable framing and with a partially flat vector bundle. This invariant can be expressed in terms of integration in differential $K$-theory, or…

We define an equivariant index of Spin$^c$-Dirac operators on possibly noncompact manifolds, acted on by compact, connected Lie groups. The main result in this paper is that the index decomposes into irreducible representations according to…

Following Hopkins and Singer, we give a definition for the differential equivariant K-theory of a smooth manifold acted upon by a finite group. The ring structure for differential equivariant K-theory is developed explicitly. We also…

We consider a generalized APS boundary problem for a G-invariant Dirac-type operator, which is not of product type near the boundary. We establish a delocalized version (a so-called Kirillov formula) of the equivariant index theorem for…

In this paper we state and prove a higher index theorem for an odd-dimensional connected spin riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ which is partitioned by an oriented closed hypersurface $N$. This index theorem generalizes a theorem due to N. Higson…

A Dirac operator on a complete manifold is Fredholm if it is invertible outside a compact set. Assuming a compact group to act on all relevant structure, and the manifold to have a warped product structure outside such a compact set, we…

We establish an S^1-equivariant index theorem for Dirac operators on Z/k-manifolds. As an application, we generalize the Atiyah-Hirzebruch vanishing theorem for S^1-actions on closed spin manifolds to the case of Z/k-manifolds.
