We use equivariant methods to establish basic properties of orbifold K-theory. We introduce the notion of twisted orbifold K-theory in the presence of discrete torsion, and show how it can be explicitly computed for global quotients.

In this note we prove the analogue of the Atiyah-Segal completion theorem for equivariant twisted K-theory in the setting of an arbitrary compact Lie group G and an arbitrary twisting of the usually considered type. The theorem generalizes…

For T an abelian compact Lie group, we give a description of T-equivariant K-theory with complex coefficients in terms of equivariant cohomology. In the appendix we give applications of this by extending results of Chang-Skjelbred and…

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…

A Laurent polynomial ring $A[t,1/t]$ with coefficients in a unital ring $A$ determines a category of quasi-coherent sheaves on the projective line over $A$; its $K$-theory is known to split into a direct sum of two copies of the $K$-theory…

Twisted complex $K$-theory can be defined for a space $X$ equipped with a bundle of complex projective spaces, or, equivalently, with a bundle of C$^*$-algebras. Up to equivalence, the twisting corresponds to an element of $H^3(X;\Z)$. We…

Using a global version of the equivariant Chern character, we describe the complexified twisted equivariant K-theory of a space with a compact Lie group action in terms of fixed-point data. We apply this to the case of a compact Lie group…

Bivariant (equivariant) K-theory is the standard setting for non-commutative topology. We may carry over various techniques from homotopy theory and homological algebra to this setting. Here we do this for some basic notions from…

We provide a proof in the language of model categories and symmetric spectra of Lurie's theorem that topological complex $K$-theory represents orientations of the derived multiplicative group. Then we generalize this result to the motivic…

We define a projective variant of classical complex orientation theory. Using this, we construct a map of spectra which lifts the total Chern class, providing an alternative answer to an old question of Segal \cite{segal}, previously…

We study the noncommutative topology of the $C^*$-algebras $C(\mathbb{C}P_q^{n})$ of the quantum projective spaces within the framework of Kasparov's bivariant K-theory. In particular, we construct an explicit KK-equivalence with the…

We prove that the tangent complex of K-theory, in terms of (abelian) deformation problems over a characteristic 0 field k, is cyclic homology (over k). This equivalence is compatible with the $\lambda$-operations. In particular, the…

Let X be a "nice" space with an action of a torus T. We consider the Atiyah-Bredon sequence of equivariant cohomology modules arising from the filtration of X by orbit dimension. We show that a front piece of this sequence is exact if and…

Computation of the K- and KO-theory for the classifying G-spaces for proper actions of certain infinite discrete groups G via a special version of the equivariant Atiyah- Hirzebruch spectral sequence.

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 determine the class of finite T_0-spaces allowing for a universal coefficient theorem computing equivariant KK-theory by filtrated K-theory.

In this article we describe the equivariant and ordinary topological $K$-ring of a toric bundle with fiber a $T$-{\it cellular} toric variety. This generalizes the results in \cite{su} on $K$-theory of smooth projective toric bundles. We…

We first retell in the K-theoretic context the heuristics of $S^1$-equivariant Floer theory on loop spaces which gives rise to $D_q$-module structures, and in the case of toric manifolds, vector bundles, or super-bundles to their explicit…

We define an analytical index map and a topological index map for conical pseudomanifolds. These constructions generalize the analogous constructions used by Atiyah and Singer in the proof of their topological index theorem for a smooth,…

The goal of this work is to describe a categorical formalism for (Extended) Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) and present them as functors from a suitable category of cobordisms with corners to a linear category, generalizing 2d…
