In the present paper we propose some generalization of the topological Brauer group that includes higher homotopical information and contains the classical one as a direct summand. Our approach is based on some kind of bundle-like objects…

We compute the connective differential $K$-theory and the differential cohomology of the moduli stack of principal $G$-bundles with connection. The results are formulated in terms of invariant polynomials and the representation ring of $G$.…

We find multipullback quantum odd-dimensional spheres equipped with natural $U(1)$-actions that yield the multipullback quantum complex projective spaces constructed from Toeplitz cubes as noncommutative quotients. We prove that the…

For a Lie groupoid G with a twisting (a PU(H)-principal bundle over G), we use the (geometric) deformation quantization techniques supplied by Connes tangent groupoids to define an analytic index morphism in twisted K-theory. In the case…

We consider twisted equivariant K--theory for actions of a compact Lie group $G$ on a space $X$ where all the isotropy subgroups are connected and of maximal rank. We show that the associated rational spectral sequence \`a la Segal has a…

Let G be a compact, simple and simply connected Lie group and $\A$ be an equivariant Dixmier-Douady bundle over G. For any fixed level k, we can define a G-C*-algebra $C_{\A^{k+h}}(G)$ as all the continuous sections of the tensor power…

We provide a definition of Tanaka-Thomas's Vafa-Witten invariants for \'etale gerbes over smooth projective surfaces using the moduli spaces of $\mu_r$-gerbe twisted sheaves and Higgs sheaves. Twisted sheaves and their moduli are naturally…

Starting with a $\mathbb{C}^*$-valued cocycle on the global quotient orbifold $X // G$, we apply transgression techniques for 2-gerbes, as developed by Lupercio and Uribe, to construct a gerbe on the orbifold loop space $\mathcal{L}(X//G)$.…

We develop methods for computing graded K-theory of C*-algebras as defined in terms of Kasparov theory. We establish graded versions of Pimsner's six-term sequences for graded Hilbert bimodules whose left action is injective and by…

We define equivariant projective unitary stable bundles as the appropriate twists when defining K-theory as sections of bundles with fibers the space of Fredholm operators over a Hilbert space. We construct universal equivariant projective…

Given a vector bundle $A\to M$ we study the geometry of the graded manifolds $T^*[k]A[1]$, including their canonical symplectic structures, compatible Q-structures and Lagrangian Q-submanifolds. We relate these graded objects to classical…

The purpose of this short paper is to investigate relations between various real K-theories. In particular, we show how a real projective bundle theorem implies an unexpected relation between Atiyah's KR-theory and the usual equivariant…

We introduce a family of twisted $K(n)$-local theories that behave analogous to twisted K-theory. Let $R_n= E_n^{hS\mathbb G_n}$, the homotopy fixed point spectrum under the action of the subgroup $S\mathbb G_n$ of the Morava stabilizer…
