We introduce the concept of extended Hopf algebras and define their cyclic cohomology in the spirit of Connes-Moscovici cyclic cohomology for Hopf algebras. Extended Hopf algebras are closely related to, but different from, Hopf algebroids. Their definition is motivated by attempting to define a cyclic cohomology theory for Hopf algebroids in general. We show that many of Hopf algebraic structu...

C. OGLE Department of Mathematics, Ohio State University, Columbus, 0H43210, U.S.A. (Received: March 1992) Abstraet. Following Connes and Moscovici, we show that the Baum-Connes assembly map for K,(C~*n) is rationally injective when n is word-hyperbolic, implying the Equivariant Novikov conjecture for such groups. Using this result in topological K-theory and BoreI-Karoubi regulators, we also s...

We construct natural representations of the Connes-Kreimer Lie algebras on rooted trees/Feynman graphs arising from Hecke correspondences in the categories LRF ,LFG constructed by K. Kremnizer and the author. We thus obtain the insertion/elimination representations constructed by Connes-Kreimer as well as an isomorphic pair we term top-insertion/top-elimination. We also construct graded finite-...

To some Hecke symmetries (i.e. Yang-Baxter braidings of Hecke type) we associate ”noncommutative varieties” called braided spheres. An example of such a variety is the Podles’ nonstandard quantum sphere. On any braided sphere we introduce and compute an ”equivariant” analogue of Connes’ noncommutative index. In contrast with the Connes’ construction our version of equivariant NC index is based ...

The Connes formula giving the dual description for the distance between points of a Riemannian manifold is extended to the Lorentzian case. It resulted that its validity essentially depends on the global structure of spacetime. The duality principle classifying spacetimes is introduced. The algebraic account of the theory is suggested as a framework for quantization along the lines proposed by ...

We give a rigorous proof that the (codimension one) Connes-Moscovici Hopf algebra HCM is isomorphic to a bicrossproduct Hopf algebra linked to a group factorisation of the diffeomorphism group Diff(R). We construct a second bicrossproduct UCM equipped with a nondegenerate dual pairing with HCM. We give a natural quotient Hopf algebra kλ[Heis] of HCM and Hopf subalgebra Uλ(heis) of UCM which aga...
