The bulk-boundary and a new bulk-defect correspondence principles are formulated using groupoid algebras. The new strategy relies on the observation that the groupoids of lattices with boundaries or defects display spaces of units with invariant accumulation manifolds, hence they can be naturally split into disjoint unions of open and closed invariant sub-sets. This leads to standard exact sequences of groupoid $C^ast$-algebras that can be used to associate a Kasparov element to a lattice defect and to formulate an extremely general bulk-defect correspondence principle. As an application, we establish a correspondence between topological defects of a 2-dimensional square lattice and Kasparovs group $KK^1 (C^ast(mathbb Z^3),mathbb C)$. Numerical examples of non-trivial bulk-defect correspondences are supplied.

We consider the algebra $dot{mathfrak H}(mathcal L)$ of inner-limit derivations over the ${rm GICAR}$ algebra of a fermion gas populating an aperiodic Delone set $mathcal L$. Under standard physical assumptions such as finite interaction range, Galil ean invariance and continuity with respect to $mathcal L$, we demonstrate that $dot{mathfrak H}(mathcal L)$ can be completed to a groupoid-solvable pro-$C^ast$-algebra. Our result is the first step towards unlocking the $K$-theoretic tools available for separable $C^ast$-algebras for applications in the context of interacting fermions.
We construct topological defects in two-dimensional classical lattice models and quantum chains. The defects satisfy local commutation relations guaranteeing that the partition function is independent of their path. These relations and their solution s are extended to allow defect lines to fuse, branch and satisfy all the properties of a fusion category. We show how the two-dimensional classical lattice models and their topological defects are naturally described by boundary conditions of a Turaev-Viro-Barrett-Westbury partition function. These defects allow Kramers-Wannier duality to be generalized to a large class of models, explaining exact degeneracies between non-symmetry-related ground states as well as in the low-energy spectrum. They give a precise and general notion of twisted boundary conditions and the universal behaviour under Dehn twists. Gluing a topological defect to a boundary yields linear identities between partition functions with different boundary conditions, allowing ratios of the universal g-factor to be computed exactly on the lattice. We develop this construction in detail in a variety of examples, including the Potts, parafermion and height models.
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 to construct Kasparov modules and semifinite spectral triples. By using a residue construction analogous to that used in the semifinite local index formula we associate to these triples a twisted cyclic cocycle on a dense subalgebra of A. This cocycle pairs with the equivariant KK-theory of the mapping cone algebra for the inclusion of the fixed point algebra of the circle action in A. The pairing is expressed in terms of spectral flow between a pair of unbounded self adjoint operators that are Fredholm in the semifinite sense. A novel aspect of our work is the discovery of an eta cocycle that forms a part of our twisted residue cocycle. To illustrate our theorems we observe firstly that they incorporate the results in cite{CPR2,CRT} as special cases. Next we use the Araki-Woods III_lambda representations of the Fermion algebra to show that there are examples which are not Cuntz-Krieger systems.
In this paper and its sequel, we construct topologically invariant defects in two-dimensional classical lattice models and quantum spin chains. We show how defect lines commute with the transfer matrix/Hamiltonian when they obey the defect commutatio n relations, cousins of the Yang-Baxter equation. These relations and their solutions can be extended to allow defect lines to branch and fuse, again with properties depending only on topology. In this part I, we focus on the simplest example, the Ising model. We define lattice spin-flip and duality defects and their branching, and prove they are topological. One useful consequence is a simple implementation of Kramers-Wannier duality on the torus and higher genus surfaces by using the fusion of duality defects. We use these topological defects to do simple calculations that yield exact properties of the conformal field theory describing the continuum limit. For example, the shift in momentum quantization with duality-twisted boundary conditions yields the conformal spin 1/16 of the chiral spin field. Even more strikingly, we derive the modular transformation matrices explicitly and exactly.

By considering the general properties of approximate units in differentiable algebras, we are able to present a unified approach to characterising completeness of spectral metric spaces, existence of connections on modules, and the lifting of Kasparo v products to the unbounded category. In particular, by strengthening Kasparovs technical theorem, we show that given any two composable KK-classes, we can find unbounded representatives whose product can be constructed to yield an unbounded representative of the Kasparov product.
