Topology Seminar: Equivariant Lefschetz invariants via analysis
October 15, 2009
University of British Columbia
Equivariant Lefschetz invariants have already appeared in algebraic topology. Here I will show how to approach them using the so-called equivariant KK-theory of Kasparov — the main tool of the new field of noncommutative geometry. I will sketch the...
