We show that the Atiyah-Hirzebruch K-theory of spaces admits a canonical generalization for stratified spaces. For this we study algebraic constructions on stratified vector bundles. In particular the tangent bundle of a stratified manifold…

We introduce a minimalistic notion of semiclassical quantization and use it to prove that the convex hull of the semiclassical spectrum of a quantum system given by a collection of commuting operators converges to the convex hull of the…

We introduce two $K$-theories, one for vector bundles whose fibers are modules of vertex operator algebras, another for vector bundles whose fibers are modules of associative algebras. We verify the cohomological properties of these…

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…

Certain semigroups are known to admit a `strong semilattice decomposition' into simpler pieces. We introduce a class of Banach algebras that generalise the $\ell^1$-convolution algebras of such semigroups, and obtain a disintegration…

The well-known Kamowitz - Scheinberg theorem states that if $U$ is an automorphism of a commutative semi-simple Banach algebra and $U^n \neq I, n \in \mathds{N}$, then the spectrum of $U$ contains the unit circle. In this paper we present…

Algebraic $K$-theory is a homology theory that behaves very well on sufficiently nice objects such as stable $C^*$-algebras or smooth algebraic varieties, and very badly in singular situations. This survey explains how to exploit this to…

In this note, we show that the spectral theorem, has two representations; the Stone-von Neumann representation and one based on the polar decomposition of linear operators, which we call the deformed representation. The deformed…

We introduce and study a $K$-theory of twisted bundles for associative algebras $A(\mathfrak g)$ of formal series with an infinite-Lie algebra coefficients over arbitrary compact topological spaces. Fibers of such bundles are given by…

We introduce a periodic form of the iterated algebraic K-theory of ku, the (connective) complex K-theory spectrum, as well as a natural twisting of this cohomology theory by higher gerbes. Furthermore, we prove a form of topological…

Let P be a semigroup that admits an embedding into a group G. Assume that the embedding satisfies a certain Toeplitz condition and that the Baum-Connes conjecture holds for G. We prove a formula describing the K- theory of the reduced…

Spectral morphisms between Banach algebras are useful for comparing their K-theory and their "noncommutative dimensions" as expressed by various notions of stable ranks. In practice, one often encounters situations where the spectral…

We develop a operator algebraic model for twisted $K$-theory, which includes the most general twistings as a generalized cohomology theory (i.e. all those classified by the unit spectrum $bgl_1(KU)$). Our model is based on strongly…

We examine the theory of connective algebraic K-theory, CK, defined by taking the -1 connective cover of algebraic K-theory with respect to Voevodsky's slice tower in the motivic stable homotopy category. We extend CK to a bi-graded…

In this paper we apply algebraic $K$-theory techniques to construct a Fuglede-Kadison type determinant for a semi-finite von Neumann algebra equipped with a fixed trace. Our construction is based on the approach to determinants for Banach…

Let $M$ be a closed manifold and $\alpha : \pi_1(M)\to U_n$ a representation. We give a purely $K$-theoretic description of the associated element $[\alpha]$ in the $K$-theory of $M$ with $\R/\Z$-coefficients. To that end, it is convenient…

Twisted K-theory has its origins in the author's PhD thesis [27] : http://www.numdam.org/item?id=ASENS_1968_4_1_2_161_0 and in the paper with P. Donovan http://www.numdam.org/item?id=PMIHES_1970__38__5_0 The objective of this paper is to…

We give a survey on the homotopy theory of the regular group of Banach algebras with emphasis on the unstable K-Theory of real and complex C*-algebras

We extend the Bass-Quillen Fundamental Theorem of Algebraic K-theory to the Waldhausen K-theory of connective ${\bf S}$-algebras. The same technique used in this extension also yields two localization theorems for the relative K-theory of a…

We introduce stratified toposes, which are toposes that are stratified by a suitable hierarchy of universes. The term `stratified topos' recalls the notion of stratified pseudotopos of Moerdijk and Palmgren (2002). However, the details of…
