Given a group G, we construct, in a canonical way, an inverse semigroup S(G) associated to G. The actions of S(G) are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the partial actions of G, both in the case of actions on a set, and that of…

Let G be a finite group. We systematically exploit general homological methods in order to reduce the computation of G-equivariant KK-theory to topological equivariant K-theory. The key observation is that the functor assigning to a…

This paper provides an E-theoretic proof of an exact form, due to E. Troitsky, of the Mischenko-Fomenko Index Theorem for elliptic pseudodifferential operators over a unital C*-algebra. The main ingredients in the proof are the use of…

We prove that any countable discrete and torsion free subgroup of a general linear group over an arbitrary field or a similar subgroup of an almost connected Lie group satisfies the integral algebraic K-theoretic (split) Novikov conjecture…

We construct a new class of finite-dimensional C^*-quantum groupoids at roots of unity q=e^{i\pi/\ell}, with limit the discrete dual of the classical SU(N) for large orders. The representation category of our groupoid turns out to be tensor…

In a previous paper we introduced the unitary conjugation groupoid associated to any unital separable Type I C*-algebra. This groupoid encodes the representation-theoretic structure of the algebra through the action of its unitary group on…

We study the ring of differential operators D(X) on the basic affine space X=G/U of a complex semisimple group G with maximal unipotent subgroup U. One of the main results shows that the cohomology group H^*(X,O_X) decomposes as a finite…

We have two constructions of the level-$(0,1)$ irreducible representation of the quantum toroidal algebra of type $A$. One is due to Nakajima and Varagnolo-Vasserot. They constructed the representation on the direct sum of the equivariant…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group with a maximal torus $T$. Let $A$, $B$ be $G$-$\mathrm{C}^\ast$-algebras. We define certain divided difference operators on Kasparov's $T$-equivariant $KK$-group $KK_T(A,B)$ and show that $KK_G(A,B)$…

The space D(k,p) of differential operators of order at most k, from the differential forms of degree p of a smooth manifold M into the functions of M, is a module over the Lie algebra of vector fields of M, when it's equipped with the…

Let $\Uq$ be a quantum group. Regarding a (noncommutative) space with $\Uq$-symmetry as a $\Uq$-module algebra $A$, we may think of equivariant vector bundles on $A$ as projective $A$-modules with compatible $\Uq$-action. We construct an…

We prove that the algebra of functions on the cotangent bundle $T^*(G/U_P)$ of the parabolic base affine space for a reductive group $G$ and a parabolic subgroup $P$ is isomorphic to the subalgebra of the functions on $G \times L \times…

We present an operator-coefficient version of Sato's infinite-dimensional Grassmann manifold, and tau-function. In this context, the Burchnall-Chaundy ring of commuting differential operators becomes a C*-algebra, to which we apply the…

We prove sufficient conditions in order to obtain a sharp G\aa rding inequality for pseudo-differential operators acting on vector-valued functions on compact Lie groups. As a consequence, we obtain a sharp G\aa rding inequality for compact…

We study the interplay between the minimal representations of the orthogonal Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{so}(n+2,\mathbb{C})$ and the \emph{algebra of symmetries} $\mathscr{S}(\Box^r)$ of powers of the Laplacian $\Box$ on…

Let F be a field, let G be its absolute Galois group, and let R(G, k) be the representation ring of G over a suitable field k. In this preprint we construct a ring homomorphism from the mod 2 Milnor K-theory k_*(F) to the graded ring gr…

In our recent paper [DSK11] we computed the dimension of the variational Poisson cohomology for any quasiconstant coefficient matrix differential operator K of arbitrary order with invertible leading coefficient, provided that the algebra…

We introduce a simplified (coarse) version of pseudo-differential calculus for operators of order zero on complete Riemannian manifolds. This calculus works for the usual Hormander (1,0) class of operators, as well as for…

Given a compact Lie group $G$ acting on a space $X$, the classical Atiyah-Segal completion theorem identifies topological $K$-theory of the homotopy quotient $X/G$ with an explicit completion of $G$-equivariant topological $K$-theory of…

Associated to a Lie groupoid, there are two $C^*$-algebras: the full and the reduced one. The associated order $0$ pseudodifferential calculus gives rise to multiplier algebras of both. We prove that both associated corona algebras are…
