In this note we introduce the notion of bundle gerbe K-theory and investigate the relation to twisted K-theory. We provide some examples. Possible applications of bundle gerbe K-theory to the classification of D-brane charges in non-trivial backgrounds are discussed.

Equivariant twisted K theory classes on compact Lie groups $G$ can be realized as families of Fredholm operators acting in a tensor product of a fermionic Fock space and a representation space of a central extension of the loop algebra $LG$ using a supersymmetric Wess-Zumino-Witten model. The aim of the present article is to extend the construction to higher loop algebras using an abelian extension of a $3D$ current algebra. We have only partial success: Instead of true Fredholm operators we have formal algebraic expressions in terms of the generators of the current algebra and an infinite dimensional Clifford algebra. These give rise to sesquilinear forms in a Hilbert bundle which transform in the expected way with respect to $3D$ gauge transformations but do not define true Hilbert space operators.
In this note we prove the analogue of the Atiyah-Segal completion theorem for equivariant twisted K-theory in the setting of an arbitrary compact Lie group G and an arbitrary twisting of the usually considered type. The theorem generalizes a result by C. Dwyer, who has proven the theorem for finite G and twistings of a more restricted type. Whi
In this note we propose that D-brane charges, in the presence of a topologically non-trivial B-field, are classified by the K-theory of an infinite dimensional C^*-algebra. In the case of B-fields whose curvature is pure torsion our description is shown to coincide with that of Witten.
We develop methods for computing graded K-theory of C*-algebras as defined in terms of Kasparov theory. We establish grad
These are some notes on the basic properties of algebraic K-theory and G-theory of derived algebraic spaces and stacks, and the theory of fundamental classes in this setting.
