Equivariant K-theory of Compact Lie Groups with Involution
نویسندگان
چکیده
For a compact simply connected simple Lie group G with an involution α, we compute theGoZ/2-equivariant K-theory of G where G acts by conjugation and Z/2 acts either by α or by g 7→ α(g)−1. We also give a representation-theoretic interpretation of those groups, as well as of KG(G).

Abstract structure of partial function $*$-algebras over semi-direct product of locally compact groups
This article presents a unified approach to the abstract notions of partial convolution and involution in $L^p$-function spaces over semi-direct product of locally compact groups. Let $H$ and $K$ be locally compact groups and $tau:Hto Aut(K)$ be a continuous homomorphism. Let $G_tau=Hltimes_tau K$ be the semi-direct product of $H$ and $K$ with respect to $tau$. We define left and right $tau$-c...
متن کاملEquivariant K-theory, Groupoids and Proper Actions
In this paper we define complex equivariantK-theory for actions of Lie groupoids. For a Bredon-compatible Lie groupoid G, this defines a periodic cohomology theory on the category of finite G-CW-complexes. A suitable groupoid allows us to define complex equivariant K-theory for proper actions of non-compact Lie groups, which is a natural extension of the theory defined in [24]. For the particul...

Introduction By spherical functions one usually means functions on the double coset space K\G/K, where G is a group and K is a subgroup of G. This is equivalent to considering functions on the homogeneous space G/K left invariant with respect to K. More generally, if V is a fixed irreducible representation of K, for example, finite-dimensional, one can look at functions on G/K whose left shifts...
متن کاملReversible Equivariant Linear Systems
In this paper we classify the structure of linear reversible systems (vector elds) on R n that are equivariant with respect to a linear representation of a compact Lie group H. We assume the time-reversal symmetry R also acts linearly and is such that the group G that is generated by H and R is again a compact Lie group. The main tool for the classiication is the representation theory of compac...
متن کاملWZW orientifolds and finite group cohomology
The simplest orientifolds of the WZW models are obtained by gauging a Z2 symmetry group generated by a combined involution of the target Lie group G and of the worldsheet. The action of the involution on the target is by a twisted inversion g 7→ (ζg)−1, where ζ is an element of the center of G. It reverses the sign of the KalbRamond torsion field H given by a bi-invariant closed 3-form on G. Th...
