Index maps taking values in the $K$-theory of a mapping cone are defined and discussed. The resulting index theorem can be viewed in analogy with the Freed-Melrose index theorem. The framework of geometric $K$-homology is used in a…
We call a graph $k$-geodetic, for some $k\geq 1$, if it is connected and between any two vertices there are at most $k$ geodesics. It is shown that any hyperbolic group with a $k$-geodetic Cayley graph is virtually-free. Furthermore, in…
Let $G$ be a group acting on a small category $\mathcal C$ over a field $k$, that is $\mathcal C$ is a $G$-$k$-category. We first obtain that $\mathcal C$ is resolvable by a category which is $G$-$k$-equivalent to it, on which $G$ acts…
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…
We use K-area homology to summarize some results about the Novikov conjecture and the Hirzebruch L-class. In fact, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for closed manifolds to have a homotopy invariant L-class. In order to obtain…
In this paper, we define an invariant, which we believe should be the substitute for total K-theory in the case when there is one distinguished ideal. Moreover, some diagrams relating the new groups to the ordinary K-groups with…
Motivated by the idea that our access to the spacetime is limited by the resolution of our measuring device, we give a new description of $K$-homology with a finite resolution. G. Yu introduced a $C^*$-algebra called the localization…
The K\"unneth Theorem for equivariant (complex) K-theory K^*_G, in the form developed by Hodgkin and others, fails dramatically when G is a finite group, and even when G is cyclic of order 2. We remedy this situation in this very simplest…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $M,N$ be two normal subgroups of $G$. Let $Aut_N^M(G)$ denote the group of all automorphisms of $G$ which fix $N$ element wise and act trivially on $G/M$. Let $n$ be a positive integer. In this article we have…
Let V be a variety of algebras of some type. An interest to describing automorphisms of the category C of finitely generated free V-algebras was inspired in connection with development of universal algebraic geometry founded by B. Plotkin.…
General relativity is a covariant theory of two transverse, traceless graviton degrees of freedom. According to a theorem of Hojman, Kuchar, and Teitelboim, modifications of general relativity must either introduce new degrees of freedom or…
The article gives the second part of the treatise on Regular Algebraic $K$-theory (Sections V & VI) of the author. Regular algebraic $K$-theory for groups is a homology theory for discrete groups closely connected to (but different from)…
We provide an explicit computation of the topological $K$-theory groups $K_*(C_r^*(\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes \mathbb{Z}/m))$ of semidirect products of the form $\mathbb{Z}^n\rtimes \mathbb{Z}Z/m$ with $m$ square-free. We want to highlight the…
The inner automorphisms of a group G can be characterized within the category of groups without reference to group elements: they are precisely those automorphisms of G that can be extended, in a functorial manner, to all groups H given…
We study variants of Hikita conjecture for Nakajima quiver varieties and corresponding Coulomb branches. First, we derive the equivariant version of the conjecture from the non-equivariant one for a set of gauge theories. Second, we suggest…
Goodwillie's rational isomorphism between relative algebraic K-theory and relative cyclic homology, together with the lambda decomposition of cyclic homology, illustrates the close relationships among algebraic K-theory, cyclic homology,…
Motivated by classical facts concerning closed manifolds, we introduce a strong finiteness property in K-homology. We say that a C*-algebra has uniformly summable K-homology if all its K-homology classes can be represented by Fredholm…
Given a variety of universal algebras. A method is suggested for describing automorphisms of a category of free algebras of this variety. Applying this general method all automorphisms of such categories are found in two cases: 1) for the…
We prove that "unitary deformation K-theory" takes products of finitely generated groups to coproducts of algebra spectra over ku, the connective K-theory spectrum. Additionally, we give spectral sequences for computing the homotopy groups…
In this paper we analyse for a $G$-$C^{*}$-algebra $A$ to which extent one can calculate the $K$-theory of the reduced crossed product $K(A\rtimes_{r}G)$ from the $K$-theory spectrum $K(A)$ with the induced $G$-action. We also consider some…
