We construct a map from $d|1$-dimensional Euclidean field theories to complexified K-theory when $d=1$ and complex analytic elliptic cohomology when $d=2$. This provides further evidence for the Stolz--Teichner program, while also…
We prove the multiplicative property of localized Chern characters. As a direct consequence, a localized Chern character gives rise to a ring homomorphism from the K-group of periodic complexes to the bivariant Chow cohomology group. As an…
In our previous work, we introduced a special type of Hermitian metrics called {\em torsion-critical,} which are non-K\"ahler critical points of the $L^2$-norm of Chern torsion over the space of all Hermitian metrics with unit volume on a…
In this paper, we construct for higher twists that arise from cohomotopy classes, the Chern character in higher twisted K-theory, that maps into higher twisted cohomology. We show that it gives rise to an isomorphism between higher twisted…
We show that the Chern-Connes character from Kasparov's bivariant K-theory to bivariant local cyclic cohomology is not always rationally injective. Counterexamples are provided by the reduced group $C^*$-algebras of word-hyperbolic groups…
This is a survey paper about representation theory and noncommutative geometry of reductive p-adic groups G. The main focus points are: 1. The structure of the Hecke algebra H(G), the Harish-Chandra-Schwartz algebra S(G) and the reduced…
The dual Lie bialgebra of a certain ``quasitriangular'' Lie bialgebra structure on the Heisenberg Lie algebra determines a (non-compact) Poisson--Lie group G. The compatible Poisson bracket on G is non-linear, but it can still be realized…
We prove index formulas for elliptic operators acting between sections of C*-vector bundles on a closed manifold. The formulas involve Karoubi's Chern character from K-theory of a C*-algebra to de Rham homology of smooth subalgebras. We…
The C*-algebras called Quantum Heisenberg Manifolds (QHM) were introduced by Rieffel in 1989 as strict deformation quantizations of Heisenberg manifolds. In this article, we compute the pairings of K-theory and cyclic cohomology on the QHM.…
We give details of the proof of the remark made in \cite{G2} that the Chern characters of the canonical generators on the K homology of the quantum group $SU_q(2)$ are not invariant under the natural $SU_q(2)$ coaction. Furthermore, the…
Given a C$^*$-dynamical system $(A, G, \alpha)$ one defines a homomorphism, called the Chern-Connes character, that take an element in $K_0(A) \oplus K_1(A)$, the K-theory groups of the C$^*$-algebra $A$, and maps it into…
The Chern character maps are one of the most important working tools in mathematics. Although they admit numerous different constructions, they are not yet fully understood at the conceptual level. In this note we eliminate this gap by…
Let H(R,q) be an affine Hecke algebra with a positive parameter function q. We are interested in the topological K-theory of H(R,q), that is, the K-theory of its C*-completion C*_r (R,q). We will prove that $K_* (C*_r (R,q))$ does not…
The multipullback quantization of complex projective spaces lacks the naive quantum CW-complex structure because the quantization of an embedding of the $n$-skeleton into the $(n+1)$-skeleton does not exist. To overcome this difficulty, we…
We compute the K-theory of complex projective spaces. There are three major ingredients: the exact sequence of K-groups, the theory of Chern character and the Bott Periodicity Theorem.
We show that unital simple C*-algebras with tracial topological rank zero which are locally approximated by subhomogeneous C^-algebras can be classified by their ordered $K$-theory. We apply this classification result to show that certain…
We establish a version of Kn\"{o}rrer's Periodicity Theorem in the context of noncommutative invariant theory. Namely, let $A$ be a left noetherian AS-regular algebra, let $f$ be a normal and regular element of $A$ of positive degree, and…
We introduce a differential extension of algebraic K-theory of an algebra using Karoubi's Chern character. In doing so, we develop a necessary theory of secondary transgression forms as well as a differential refinement of the smooth…
We compute rationally the topological (complex) K-theory of the classifying space BG of a discrete group provided that G has a cocompact G-CW-model for its classifying space for proper G-actions. For instance word-hyperbolic groups and…
We consider cycles for graded $C^{*,r}$-algebras (Real $C^{*}$-algebras) which are compatible with the $*$-structure and the real structure. Their characters are cyclic cocycles. We define a Connes type pairing between such characters and…
