Almost flat K-theory of classifying spaces

Abstract

We give a rigorous account and prove continuity properties for the correspondence between almost flat bundles on a triangularizable compact connected space and the quasi-representations of its fundamental group. For a discrete countable group Γ\Gamma with finite classifying space BΓB\Gamma, we study a correspondence between between almost flat K-theory classes on BΓB\Gamma and group homomorphism K0(C(Γ))ZK_0(C^*(\Gamma))\to \mathbb{Z} that are implemented by pairs of discrete asymptotic homomorphisms from C(Γ)C^*(\Gamma) to matrix algebras.
