This paper studies the K-homology of a crossed product of a discrete group acting smoothly on a manifold, with a better understanding of the noncommutative geometry of the crossed-product as the primary goal, and the Baum-Connes apparatus…
We give a new construction of the equivariant $K$-theory of group actions (cf. Barwick et al.), producing an infinite loop $G$-space for each Waldhausen category with $G$-action, for a finite group $G$. On the category $R(X)$ of retractive…
We study the fixed points of the q-bracket on the complex unit disk, and prove the following. The set of (nontrivial) pairs (x,q) such that [x]_q=x form a manifold whose standard projections both have degree p-2. There is an analytic…
We propose a systematic procedure that solves the Dirac bracket commutators. The method is based on the Gauge Unfixing formalism, a procedure that converts second class systems into first class ones without the enlargement of the original…
Several formulas for computing coarse indices of twisted Dirac type operators are introduced. One type of such formulas is by composition product in $E$-theory. The other type is by module multiplications in $K$-theory, which also yields an…
Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group, and $M$ a compact Hamiltonian $G$-space, with moment map $J$. For each $G$-equivariant Hermitian vector bundle $E$ over $M$, one has an associated twisted Spin-C Dirac operator, whose equivariant…
Given a commuting d-tuple $\bar T=(T_1,...,T_d)$ of otherwise arbitrary nonnormal operators on a Hilbert space, there is an associated Dirac operator $D_{\bar T}$. Significant attributes of the d-tuple are best expressed in terms of…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated discrete group acting properly and cocompactly on a smooth manifold M. By employing heat-kernel techniques we prove a geometric formula for the pairing of the index class associated to a…
We establish the factorization of the Dirac operator on an almost-regular fibration of spin$^c$ manifolds in unbounded KK-theory. As a first intermediate result we establish that any vertically elliptic and symmetric first-order…
Extending work of Klyachko and Perling, we develop a combinatorial description of pure equivariant sheaves of any dimension on an arbitrary nonsingular toric variety $X$. Using geometric invariant theory (GIT), this allows us to construct…
In a previous paper we have introduced the gauge-equivariant K-theory group of a bundle endowed with a continuous action of a bundle of compact Lie groups. These groups are the natural range for the analytic index of a family of…
We discuss how to generalize a Dirac operator such that the solution of a Dirac equation is of bounded variation rather than continuous. We build the spectral theory for generalized Dirac operators and discuss the connection between them…
On a foliated manifold equipped with an action of a compact Lie group $G$, we study a class of almost-coupling Poisson and Dirac structures, in the context of deformation theory and the method of averaging.
In this paper, we consider the dynamical zeta functions of Ruelle and Selberg associated with the geodesic flow of a compact hyperbolic odd dimensional manifold $X$. These functions are initially defined on one complex variable $s$ in some…
We consider the linear Dirac operator with a (-1)-homogeneous locally periodic potential that varies with respect to a small parameter. Using the notation of G-convergence for positive self-adjoint operators in Hilbert spaces we prove…
This is the second part in a series of two papers. The $k$-Dirac complex is a complex of differential operators which are natural to a particular $|2|$-graded parabolic geometry. In this paper we will consider the $k$-Dirac complex over a…
As announced in [12], we develop a calculus of Fourier integral G-operators on any Lie groupoid G. For that purpose, we study convolability and invertibility of Lagrangian conic submanifolds of the symplectic groupoid T * G. We also…
We derive a formula for the eta invariants of equivariant Dirac operators on quotients of compact Lie groups, and for their infinitesimally equivariant extension. As an example, we give some computations for spheres.
We analyze the Dirac Laplacian of a one-parameter family of Dirac operators on a compact Lie group, which includes the Levi-Civita, cubic, and trivial Dirac operators. More specifically, we describe the Dirac Laplacian action on any…
We define the gauge-equivariant index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a family $\GR \to B$ of Lie groups (these families are called ``gauge-invariant families'' in what follows). If the fibers…
