Equivariant Fredholm operators classify equivariant K-theory
Let $\mathcal{F}$ be the space of Fredholm operators on a separable Hilbert space $H$ with the topology induced by the operator norm.
If $X$ is compact,
Atiyah-Jänich proved that
$$[X,\mathcal{F}]\...

When do non-exact functors induce morphisms on $K$-theory?
Let $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$ be Waldhausen or exact categories, so that we can take the $K$-theory spectrum of $\mathcal{A}$ and $\mathcal{B}$. An exact functor $F: \mathcal{A} \to \mathcal{B}$ ...

Equivariant K-theory of projective representation on complex projective space
Let $G$ be a group and let $V$ be a complex projective representation of $G$, so that $G$ acts on the projectivization $\mathbb{P}(V)$. Is there any way to calculate the $G$-equivariant complex $K$-...

Splitting of $BGL_1(KR)$
There are infinite loop space splittings $BGL_1(KO)\simeq BGL_1(KO)[0,2]\times Z$ and $BGL_1(KU)\simeq BGL_1(KU)[0,3]\times Z'$ where $Z$ and $Z'$ are 2 and 3 connected, respectively (i.e. they have ...

$E^G_\ast(E)$ tensored with the rationals
Lemma 17.19 of Switzer's "Algebraic topology - Homology and Homotopy" states that $E_\ast(F)\otimes\mathbb{Q}$ is isomorphic to $\pi_\ast(E)\otimes\pi_\ast(F)\otimes\mathbb{Q}$. I wanted to ...

Explicit computation of the transfer in the representation ring for unitary groups
For a compact Lie group $G$ we let $R(G)$ be the ring of finite dimensional complex $G$-representations studied by Segal in http://www.numdam.org/item/PMIHES_1968__34__113_0.pdf.
This comes with extra ...
