This is a study of twisted K-theory on a product space $T \times M$. The twisting comes from a decomposable cup product class which applies the 1-cohomology of $T$ and the 2-cohomology of $M$. In the case of a topological product, we give a…
Let $K$ be a compact convex body in $\mathbb R^n.$ For any affine line $L,$ denote $\widehat{\chi}_K(L)=\int_{L}\chi_K(x)dl(x),$ where $dl$ is the arc length measure, the $X$-ray transform of the characteristic function $\chi_K,$ i.e., the…
Let k be an infinite field, I an infinite set, V a k-vector-space, and g:k^I\to V a k-linear map. It is shown that if dim_k(V) is not too large (under various hypotheses on card(k) and card(I), if it is finite, respectively countable,…
In this paper we show that the $\mathrm{K}$-homology groups of a separable C*-algebra can be enriched with additional descriptive set-theoretic information, and regarded as definable groups. Using a definable version of the Universal…
Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. The set $\cha(X)$ of one-dimensional complex valued characters of the fundamental group of $X$ forms an algebraic group. Consider the subset of $\cha(X)$ consisting of those characters for which the…
This paper brings together C*-algebras and algebraic topology in terms of viewing a C*-algebraic invariant in terms of a topological spectrum. E-theory, E(A,B), is a bivariant functor in the sense that is a cohomology functor in the first…
We introduce and study action of quantum groups on skew polynomial rings and related rings of quotients. This leads to a ``q-deformation'' of the Gel'fand-Kirillov conjecture which we partially prove. We propose a construction of…
We extend the Gelfand-Naimark duality of commutative C*-algebras, "A COMMUTATIVE C*-ALGEBRA -- A LOCALLY COMPACT HAUSDORFF SPACE" to "A C*-ALGEBRA--A QUOTIENT OF A LOCALLY COMPACT HAUSDORFF SPACE". Thus, a C*-algebra is isomorphic to the…
For a locally compact group $G$ and compact subgroup $K$, we consider a Delsarte-type extremal problem for $G$-invariant positive definite kernels on the homogeneous space $G/K$, generalising a certain Tur\'an problem for isotropic positive…
We compare the invariants of flat vector bundles defined by Atiyah et al. and Jones et al. and prove that, up to weak homotopy, they induce the same map, denoted by $e$, from the $0$-connective algebraic $K$-theory space of the complex…
It is shown that a separable exact residually finite dimensional C*-algebra with locally finitely generated (rational) even K-homology embeds in a uniformly hyperfinite C*-algebra.
The category of all $k$-algebras with a bilinear form, whose objects are all pairs $(R,b)$ where $R$ is a $k$-algebra and $b\colon R\times R\to k$ is a bilinear mapping, is equivalent to the category of unital $k$-algebras $A$ for which the…
We display four approximation theorems for manifold-valued mappings. The first one approximates holomorphic embeddings on pseudoconvex domains in $\Bbb C^n$ with holomorphic embeddings with dense images. The second theorem approximates…
We consider a construction of C*-algebras from continuous piecewise monotone maps on the circle which generalizes the crossed product construction for homeomorphisms and more generally the construction of Renault, Deaconu and…
We establish the Thom isomorphism in twisted K-theory for any real vector bundle and develop the push-forward map in twisted K-theory for any differentiable proper map $f: X\to Y$ (not necessarily K-oriented). The push-forward map…
We study, in the setting of algebraic varieties, finite-dimensional spaces of functions V that are invariant under a ring D^V of differential operators, and give conditions under which D^V acts irreducibly. We show how this problem,…
The Kirchberg Embedding Problem (KEP) asks if every C*-algebra embeds into an ultrapower of the Cuntz algebra $\mathcal{O}_2$. In an effort to provide a negative solution to the KEP and motivated by the recent refutation of the Connes…
We study the question as to when the closed convex hull of a K-convex map equals its K-epigraph. In particular, we shed light onto the smallest cone K such that a given map has convex and closed K-epigraph, respectively. We apply our…
We study the coupling of the closed string to the open string in the topological B-model. These couplings can be viewed as gauge invariant observables in the open string field theory, or as deformations of the differential graded algebra…
By means of hypercyclic operator theory, we complement our previous results on hypercyclic holomorphic maps between complex Euclidean spaces having slow growth rates,by showing {\it abstract abundance} rather than {\it explicit existence}.…
