The Baum-Connes conjecture is part of A. Connes' non-commutative geometry programme. It can be viewed as a conjectural generalisation of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem, to the equivariant setting (the ambient manifold is not compact, but some compactness is restored by means of a proper, co-compact action of a group "gamma" ). Like the Atiyah-Singer theorem, the Baum-Connes conjecture states that a purely topological object coincides with a purely analytical one. For a given group "gamma", the topological object is the equivariant K-homology of the classifying space for proper actions of "gamma", while the analytical object is the K-theory of the C*-algebra associated with "gamma" in its regular representation. The Baum-Connes conjecture implies several other classical conjectures, ranging from differential topology to pure algebra. It has also strong connections with geometric group theory, as the proof of the conjecture for a given group "gamma" usually depends heavily on geometric properties of "gamma". This book is intended for graduate students and researchers in geometry (commutative or not), group theory, algebraic topology, harmonic analysis, and operator algebras. It presents, for the first time in book form, an introduction to the Baum-Connes conjecture. It starts by defining carefully the objects in both sides of the conjecture, then the assembly map which connects them. Thereafter it illustrates the main tool to attack the conjecture (Kasparov's theory), and it concludes with a rough sketch of V. Lafforgue's proof of the conjecture for co-compact lattices in in Spn1, SL (3R), and SL (3C).

"Overall, the book is a very valuable addition to the literature on the Baum-Connes conjecture. It is highly recommended reading for anyone interested in learning more about the conjecture, or who does research in areas related to it. Of course, the reader who wants to be an expert will eventually have to consult the original literature, but such is inevitable in a book of this size (around 100 pages) and not necessarily a bad thing."

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -A quick description of the conjecture The Baum-Connes conjecture is part of Alain Connes'tantalizing 'noncommuta tive geometry' programme [18]. It is in some sense the most 'commutative' part of this programme, since it bridges with classical geometry and topology. Let r be a countable group. The Baum-Connes conjecture identifies two objects associated with r, one analytical and one geometrical/topological. The right-hand side of the conjecture, or analytical side, involves the K theory of the reduced C -algebra c;r, which is the C -algebra generated by r in 2 its left regular representation on the Hilbert space C(r). The K-theory used here, Ki(C;r) for i = 0, 1, is the usual topological K-theory for Banach algebras, as described e.g. in [85]. The left-hand side of the conjecture, or geometrical/topological side RKf(Er) (i=O,I), is the r-equivariant K-homology with r-compact supports of the classifying space Er for proper actions of r. If r is torsion-free, this is the same as the K-homology (with compact supports) of the classifying space Br (or K(r,l) Eilenberg-Mac Lane space). This can be defined purely homotopically. 104 pp. Englisch. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9783764367060
