This paper presents, by example, an index theory appropriate to algebras without trace. Whilst we work exclusively with the Cuntz algebras the exposition is designed to indicate how to develop a general theory. Our main result is an index theorem (formulated in terms of spectral flow) using a twisted cyclic cocycle where the twisting comes from the modular automorphism group for the canonical gauge action on the Cuntz algebra. We introduce a modified $K_1$-group of the Cuntz algebra so as to pair with this twisted cocycle. As a corollary we obtain a noncommutative geometry interpretation for Arakis notion of relative entropy in this example. We also note the connection of this example to the theory of noncommutative manifolds.
Recently, examples of an index theory for KMS states of circle actions were discovered, cite{CPR2,CRT}. We show that these examples are not isolated. Rather there is a general framework in which we use KMS states for circle actions on a C*-algebra A
We study twisted $Spin^c$-manifolds over a paracompact Hausdorff space $X$ with a twisting $alpha: X to K(ZZ, 3)$. We introduce the topological index and the analytical index on the bordism group of $alpha$-twisted $Spin^c$-manifolds over $(X, alpha)
$HC_*(A rtimes G)$ 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 f
We investigate an extension of ideas of Atiyah-Patodi-Singer (APS) to a noncommutative geometry setting framed in terms of Kasparov modules. We use a mapping cone construction to relate odd index pairings to even index pairings with APS boundary cond
In the founding paper on unbounded $KK$-theory it was established by Baaj and Julg that the bounded transform, which associates a class in $KK$-theory to any unbounded Kasparov module, is a surjective homomorphism (under a separability assumption). I
