We study index theory for manifolds with Baas-Sullivan singularities using geometric K-homology with coefficients in a unital C*-algebra. In particular, we define a natural analog of the Baum-Connes assembly map for a torsion-free discrete…
We give a formulation of a deformation of Dirac operator along orbits of a group action on a possibly non-compact manifold to get an equivariant index and a K-homology cycle representing the index. We apply this framework to non-compact…
We construct a symmetric spectrum representing the G-equivariant K-theory of C*-algebras for a compact group or a proper groupoid G. Our spectrum is functorial for equivariant *-homomorphisms. We use this to establish the additivity of the…
The Chern classes of a K-theory class which is represented by a vector bundle with connection admit refinements to Cheeger-Simons classes in Deligne cohomology. In the present paper we consider similar refinements in the case where the…
We investigate an extension of ideas of Atiyah-Patodi-Singer (APS) to a noncommutative geometry setting framed in terms of Kasparov modules. We use a mapping cone construction to relate odd index pairings to even index pairings with APS…
Extending ideas of twisted equivariant $K$-theory, we construct twisted versions of the representation rings for Lie superalgebras and Lie supergroups, built from projective $\Z_{2}$-graded representations with a given cocycle. We then…
We explore factorizations of noncommutative Riemannian spin geometries over commutative base manifolds in unbounded KK-theory. After setting up the general formalism of unbounded KK-theory and improving upon the construction of internal…
In this paper we introduce the curvature of densely defined universal connections on Hilbert $C^{*}$-modules relative to a spectral triple (or unbounded Kasparov module), obtaining a well-defined curvature operator. Fixing the spectral…
This is an expository paper which gives a proof of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem for Dirac operators, presenting the theorem as a computation of the K-homology of a point. This paper and its follow up ("K-homology and index theory II:…
We prove that the C*-algebra of a minimal diffeomorphism satisfies Blackadar's Fundamental Comparability Property for positive elements. This leads to the classification, in terms of K-theory and traces, of the isomorphism classes of…
We use techniques from both real and complex algebraic geometry to study K-theoretic and related invariants of the algebra C(X) of continuous complex-valued functions on a compact Hausdorff topological space X. For example, we prove a…
For a countable group $G$ we construct a small, idempotent complete, symmetric monoidal, stable $\infty$-category $\mathrm{KK}^{G}_{\mathrm{sep}}$ whose homotopy category recovers the triangulated equivariant Kasparov category of separable…
Let $Q$ be an algebraic group and $V$ a $Q$-module. The index of $V$ is the minimal codimension of the $Q$-orbits in the dual space $V^*$. There is a general inequality, due to Vinberg, relating the index of $V$ and the index of…
We prove an analogue of the Gabriel--Quillen embedding theorem for exact $\infty$-categories, giving rise to a presentable version of Klemenc's stable envelope of an exact $\infty$-category. Moreover, we construct a symmetric monoidal…
We show that the "eigenbundle" (localization bundle) of certain Hilbert modules over bounded symmetric domains of rank r is a "singular" vector bundle (linearly fibrered complex analytic space) which decomposes as a stratified sum of…
We construct a version of differential $K$-theory based on smooth Banach manifold models for the homotopy types $B \mathrm U\times Z$ and $\mathrm U$ that appear in the topological $K$-theory spectrum. These manifolds carry natural…
Let G be a locally compact group. We describe elements of KK^G (A,B) by equivariant homomorphisms, following Cuntz's treatment in the non-equivariant case. This yields another proof for the universal property of KK^G: It is the universal…
We propose an algorithm for obtaining the spectra of Casimir (Laplace) operators on Lie groups. We prove that the existence of the normal polarization associated with a linear functional on the Lie algebra is necessary and sufficient for…
We compute the $K$-theory of comparison $C^*$-algebra associated to a manifold with corners. These comparison algebras are an example of the abstract pseudodifferential algebras introduced by Connes and Moscovici \cite{M3}. Our calculation…
We introduce the notion of a homotopy of product systems, and show that the Cuntz-Nica-Pimsner algebras of homotopic product systems over N^k have isomorphic K-theory. As an application, we give a new proof that the K-theory of a 2-graph…
