The goal of this article is to provide a bridge between the gamma element method for the Baum--Connes conjecture (the Dirac dual-Dirac method) and the controlled algebraic approach of Roe and Yu (localization algebras). For any second countable, locally compact group G, we study the reduced crossed product algebras of the representable localization algebras for proper G-spaces. We show that the naturally defined forget-control map is equivalent to the Baum--Connes assembly map for any locally compact group G and for any coefficient G-C*-algebra B. We describe the gamma element method for the Baum--Connes conjecture from this controlled algebraic perspective. As an application, we extend the recent new proof of the Baum--Connes conjecture with coefficients for CAT(0)-cubical groups to the non-cocompact setting.
$HC_*(A rtimes G)$ is the cyclic homology of the crossed product algebra $A rtimes G.$ For any $g epsilon G$ we will define a homomorphism from $HC_*^g(A),$ the twisted cylic homology of $A$ with respect to $g,$ to $HC_*(A rtimes G).$ If $G$ is the finite cyclic group generated by $g$ and $|G|=r$ is invertible in $k,$ then $HC_*(A rtimes G)$ will be isomorphic to a direct sum of $r$ copies of $HC_*^g(A).$ For the case where $|G|$ is finite and $Q subset k$ we will generalize the Karoubi and Connes periodicity exact sequences for $HC_*^g(A)$ to Karoubi and Connes periodicity exact sequences for $HC_*(A rtimes G)$ .
Let $X$ be a compact Hausdorff space, let $Gamma$ be a discrete group that acts continuously on $X$ from the right, define $widetilde{X} = {(x,gamma) in X times Gamma : xcdotgamma= x}$, and let $Gamma$ act on $widetilde{X}$ via the formula $(x,gamma)cdotalpha = (xcdotalpha, alpha^{-1}gammaalpha)$. Results of P. Baum and A. Connes, along with facts about the Chern character, imply that $K^i_Gamma(X) otimes mathbb{C} cong K^i(widetilde{X}slashGamma) otimes mathbb{C}$ for $i = 0, -1$. In this note, we present an example where the groups $K^i_Gamma(X)$ and $K^i(widetilde{X}slashGamma)$ are not isomorphic.
We obtain a mixed complex simpler than the canonical one the computes the type cyclic homologies of a crossed product with invertible cocycle $Atimes_{rho}^f H$, of a weak module algebra $A$ by a weak Hopf algebra $H$. This complex is provided with a filtration. The spectral sequence of this filtration generalizes the spectral sequence obtained in cite{CGG}. When $f$ takes its values in a separable subalgebra of $A$ that satisfies suitable conditions, the above mentioned mixed complex is provided with another filtration, whose spectral sequence generalize the Feigin-Tsygan spectral sequence.
We revisit the characterisation of modules over non-unital $C^*$-algebras analogous to modules of sections of vector bundles. A fullness condition on the associated multiplier module characterises a class of modules which closely mirror the commutative case. We also investigate the multiplier-module construction in the context of bi-Hilbertian bimodules, particularly those of finite numerical index and finite Watatani index.
We study the periodic cyclic homology groups of the cross-product of a finite type algebra $A$ by a discrete group $Gamma$. In case $A$ is commutative and $Gamma$ is finite, our results are complete and given in terms of the singular cohomology of the strata of fixed points. These groups identify our cyclic homology groups with the dlp orbifold cohomologydrp of the underlying (algebraic) orbifold. The proof is based on a careful study of localization at fixed points and of the resulting Koszul complexes. We provide examples of Azumaya algebras for which this identification is, however, no longer valid. As an example, we discuss some affine Weyl groups.
