We construct a Fredhom module representing the Kasparov gamma element in G-equivariant KK-theory for G a semisimple Lie group of real rank one. This is the main step of our proof of the Baum-Connes conjecture for such groups.

We present an alternative approach to the result of Guentner, Higson, and Weinberger concerning the Baum-Connes conjecture for finitely generated subgroups of SL(2,C). Using finite-dimensional methods, we show that the Baum-Connes assembly…

We prove the existence of a map of spectra $\tau_A \colon kA \to lA$ between connective topological K-theory and connective algebraic L-theory of a complex $C^*$-algebra A which is natural in A and compatible with multiplicative structures.…

In an earlier paper, the authors introduced partial translation algebras as a generalisation of group C*-algebras. Here we establish an extension of partial translation algebras, which may be viewed as an excision theorem in this context.…

The equivariant coarse index is well-understood and widely used for actions by discrete groups. We extend the definition of this index to general locally compact groups. We use a suitable notion of admissible modules over $C^*$-algebras of…

We review the formulation and proof of the Baum-Connes conjecture for the dual of the quantum group $ SU_q(2) $ of Woronowicz. As an illustration of this result we determine the $ K $-groups of quantum automorphism groups of simple matrix…

C. Bonnaf{\'e}, M. Geck, L. Iancu, and T. Lam have conjectured a description of one-sided cells in unequal parameter Hecke algebras of type $B$ which is based on domino tableaux of arbitrary rank. In the integer case, this generalizes the…

Alain Connes and Nigel Higson pointed out in the 1990s that the Connes-Kasparov "conjecture"' for the K-theory of reduced groupe $C^\ast$-algebras seemed, in the case of reductive Lie groups, to be a cohomological echo of a conjecture of…

We prove the $K$-theoretic Farrell-Jones conjecture for groups as in the title with coefficient rings and $C^*$-algebras which are stable with respect to compact operators. We use this and Higson-Kasparov's result that the Baum-Connes…

K-theory for $ \sigma$-C*-algebras (countable inverse limits of C*-algebras) has been investigated by N. C. Phillips [{\it K-Theory} {\bf 3} (1989), 441--478]. We use his representable K-theory to show that the space of Fredholm modular…

We consider the semi-direct products $G=\mathbb Z^2\rtimes GL_2(\mathbb Z), \mathbb Z^2\rtimes SL_2(\mathbb Z)$ and $\mathbb Z^2\rtimes\Gamma(2)$ (where $\Gamma(2)$ is the congruence subgroup of level 2). For each of them, we compute both…

In this paper, we introduce a property of topological dynamical systems that we call finite dynamical complexity. For systems with this property, one can in principle compute the $K$-theory of the associated crossed product $C^*$-algebra by…

We prove that the Harish-Chandra--Schwartz space associated with a discrete subgroup of a semisimple Lie group is a dense subalgebra of the reduced $C^*$-algebra of the discrete subgroup. Then, we prove that for the reduced $C^*$-norm is…

Let $G$ and $H$ be finitely generated groups. In this paper, we prove the quantitative coarse Baum--Connes conjecture for the free product $G* H$ under the assumption that the conjecture holds for both $G$ and $H$.

The canonical trace on the reduced C*-algebra of a discrete group gives rise to a homomorphism from the K-theory of this C^*-algebra to the real numbers. This paper addresses the range of this homomorphism. For torsion free groups, the…

Let G denote a split simply connected almost simple p-adic group. The classical example is the special linear group SL(n). We study the K-theory of the unramified unitary principal series of G and prove that the rank of K_0 is the…

We prove an analogue of the Baum-Connes conjecture for free orthogonal quantum groups. More precisely, we show that these quantum groups have a $ \gamma $-element and that $ \gamma = 1 $. It follows that free orthogonal quantum groups are $…

Let a compact group G act on real or complex C*-algebras A and B, with A separable and B sigma-unital. We express the G-equivariant Kasparov groups KK_n(A,B) by algebraic K-groups of a certain additive category.

We compute the K-theory of C*-algebras generated by the left regular representation of left Ore semigroups satisfying certain regularity conditions. Our result describes the K-theory of these semigroup C*-algebras in terms of the K-theory…

We introduce a notion of approximate ideal structure for a $C^*$-algebra, and use it as a tool to study $K$-theory groups. The notion is motivated by the classical Mayer-Vietoris sequence, by the theory of nuclear dimension as introduced by…
