Base change and K-theory for GL(n,R)

K-Theory and Homology 2009-05-27 v2 Representation Theory

Abstract

We investigate base change C/RC/R at the level of KK-theory for the general linear group GL(n,R)GL(n,R). In the course of this study, we compute in detail the CC*-algebra KK-theory of this disconnected group. We investigate the interaction of base change with the Baum-Connes correspondence for GL(n,R)GL(n,R) and GL(n,C)GL(n,C). This article is the archimedean companion of our previous article in the Journal of Noncommutative Geometry.
