  • Higher Localized Analytic Indices and Strict Deformation Quantization3
    Higher localized analytic indices and strict deformation quantization Paulo Carrillo Rouse Abstract. This paper is concerned with the localization of higher analytic indices for Lie groupoids. Let G be a Lie groupoid with Lie algebroid AG . Let ∞ τ be a (periodic) cyclic cocycle over the convolution algebra Cc (G ). We say that τ can be localized if there is a correspondence 0 ∗ Ind K (A G ) −→τ C satisfying Indτ (a) = hindDa, τi (Connes pairing). In this case, we call Indτ the higher localized index associated to τ. In[CR08a] we use the algebra of functions over the tangent groupoid introduced in [CR08b], which is in fact a strict deformation quantization of the Schwartz algebra S (AG ), to prove the following results: • Every bounded continuous cyclic cocycle can be localized. • If G is ´etale, every cyclic cocycle can be localized. We will recall this results with the difference that in this paper, a formula for higher localized indices will be given in terms of an asymptotic limit of a pairing at the level of the deformation algebra mentioned above. We will discuss how the higher index formulas of Connes-Moscovici, Gorokhovsky-Lott fit in this unifying setting. Contents 1. Introduction 1 2. Index theory for Lie groupoids 4 3.

  • Group C*-Algebras and K-Theory
    Group C*-Algebras and K-theory ¡ Nigel Higson and Erik Guentner ¢ Department of Mathematics, Pennsylvania State University University Park, PA 16802 [email protected] £ Department of Mathematical Sciences University of Hawaii, Manoa 2565 McCarthy Mall, Keller 401A Honolulu, HI 96822 [email protected] Preface These notes are about the formulation of the Baum-Connes conjecture in operator algebra theory and the proofs of some cases of it. They are aimed at readers who ¤ have some prior familiarity with -theory for ¥§¦ -algebras (up to and including the Bott Periodicity theorem). I hope the notes will be suitable for a second course in operator ¤ -theory. The lectures begin by reviewing ¤ -theory and the Bott periodicity theorem. Much of the Baum-Connes theory has to do with broadening the periodicity theo- rem in one way or another, and for this reason quite some time is spent formulating and proving the theorem in a way which is suited to later extensions. Following that, the lectures turn to the machinery of bivariant ¤ -theory and the formulation of the Baum-Connes conjecture. The main objective of the notes is reached in Lec- ture 4, where the conjecture is proved for groups which act properly and isometrically on affine Euclidean spaces. The remaining lectures deal with partial results which are important in applications and with counterxamples to various overly optimistic strengthenings of the conjecture. Despite their length the notes are not complete in every detail, and the reader will have to turn to the references, or his own inner resources, to fill some gaps. In ad- dition the lectures contain no discussion of applications or connections to geometry, topology and harmonic analysis, nor do they cover the remarkable work of Vincent Lafforgue.

  • Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Noncommutative
    Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach Report No. 29/2015 DOI: 10.4171/OWR/2015/29 Noncommutative Geometry Organised by Alain Connes, Paris Joachim Cuntz, M¨unster Stefaan Vaes, Leuven Guoliang Yu, College Station 14 June – 20 June 2015 Abstract. These reports contain an account of 2015’s meeting on noncom- mutative geometry. Noncommutative geometry has developed itself over the years to a completely new branch of mathematics shedding light on many other areas as number theory, differential geometry and operator algebras. A connection that was highlighted in particular in this meeting was the connec- tion with the theory of II1-factors and geometric group theory. Mathematics Subject Classification (2010): 58B34. Introduction by the Organisers Noncommutative geometry applies ideas from geometry to mathematical struc- tures determined by noncommuting variables. Within mathematics, it is a highly inter-disciplinary subject drawing ideas and methods from many areas of math- ematics and physics. Natural questions involving noncommuting variables arise in abundance in many parts of mathematics and theoretical quantum physics. On the basis of ideas and methods from algebraic and differential topology and Riemannian geometry, as well as from the theory of operator algebras and from homological algebra, an extensive machinery has been developed which permits the formulation and investigation of the geometric properties of noncommutative structures. This includes K-theory, cyclic homology and the theory of spectral triples. Areas of intense research in recent years are related to topics such as in- dex theory, quantum groups and Hopf algebras, the Novikov and Baum-Connes conjectures as well as to the study of specific questions in other fields such as number theory, modular forms, topological dynamical systems, renormalization 1632 Oberwolfach Report 29/2015 theory, theoretical high-energy physics and string theory.
