In this paper, we study the family index of a family of spin manifolds. In particular, we discuss to which extend the real index (of the Dirac operator of the real spinor bundle if the fiber dimension is divisible by 8) which can be defined in this case contains extra information over the complex index (the index of its complexification). We study this question under the additional assumption that the complex index vanishes on the k-skeleton of B. In this case, using local index theory we define new analytical invariants $hat c_kin H^{k-1}(B;reals/integers)$. We then continue and describe these invariants in terms of known topological characteristic classes. Moreover, we show that it is an interesting new non-trivial invariant in many examples.

Real index pairings of projections and unitaries on a separable Hilbert space with a real structure are defined when the projections and unitaries fulfill symmetry relations invoking the real structure, namely projections can be real, quaternionic, e ven or odd Lagrangian and unitaries can be real, quaternionic, symmetric or anti-symmetric. There are $64$ such real index pairings of real $K$-theory with real $K$-homology. For $16$ of them, the Noether index of the pairing vanishes, but there is a secondary $mathbb{Z}_2$-valued invariant. The first set of results provides index formulas expressing each of these $16$ $mathbb{Z}_2$-valued pairings as either an orientation flow or a half-spectral flow. The second and main set of results constructs the skew localizer for a pairing stemming from a Fredholm module and shows that the $mathbb{Z}_2$-invariant can be computed as the sign of its Pfaffian and in $8$ of the cases as the sign of the determinant of its off-diagonal entry. This is of relevance for the numerical computation of invariants of topological insulators.
We initiate the study of real $C^*$-algebras associated to higher-rank graphs $Lambda$, with a focus on their $K$-theory. Following Kasparov and Evans, we identify a spectral sequence which computes the $mathcal{CR}$ $K$-theory of $C^*_{mathbb R} (La mbda, gamma)$ for any involution $gamma$ on $Lambda$, and show that the $E^2$ page of this spectral sequence can be straightforwardly computed from the combinatorial data of the $k$-graph $Lambda$ and the involution $gamma$. We provide a complete description of $K^{CR}(C^*_{mathbb R}(Lambda, gamma))$ for several examples of higher-rank graphs $Lambda$ with involution.

We construct a $C_2$-equivariant spectral sequence for RO$(C_2)$-graded homotopy groups. The construction is by using the motivic effective slice filtration and the $C_2$-equivariant Betti realization. We apply the spectral sequence to compute the RO $(C_2)$-graded homotopy groups of the completed $C_2$-equivariant connective real $K$-theory spectrum. The computation reproves the $C_2$-equivariant Adams spectral sequence results by Guillou, Hill, Isaksen and Ravenel.
The theory of Topological Modular Forms suggests the existence of deformation invariants for two-dimensional supersymmetric field theories that are more refined than the standard elliptic genus. In this note we give a physical definition of some of t hese invariants. The theory of mock modular forms makes a surprise appearance, shedding light on the integrality properties of some well-known examples.
We prove the topological analogue of the period-index conjecture in each dimension away from a small set of primes.
