| Title: | Twisted K-theory and index of elliptic operators |
| Seminar: | GAP Seminar |
| Speaker: | Jean-Louis Tu, University of Metz |
| Abstract: |
| Twisted K-theory is the natural framework to
understand Thom isomorphism for vector bundles which
are not K-oriented and Poincaré duality. We start
by reviewing basic definitions and properties of twisted
K-theory. Then, we explain a construction of wrong-way
functoriality in K-theory. Finally, we will see how
non-integral indices of elliptic operators can be
interpreted in this context. |
