Abstract

Local Hochschild, cyclic Homology and K-theory were introduced by N. Teleman in [10] with the purpose of unifying different settings of the index theorem. This paper is one of the research topics announced in [10], §10. The definition of these new objects inserts the Alexander-Spanier idea for defining the co-homology [8] into the corresponding constructions. This is done by allowing only chains which have smal l support about the diagonal. This definition, applicable at least in the case of the Banach sub-algebras of the algebra of bounded operators on the Hilbert space of L2-sections in vector bundles, differs from various constructions due to A. Connes [1], A. Connes, H.Moscovici [2], M. Puschnigg [7], J. Cuntz [4]. In this paper we prove that the local Hochschild homology of the Banach algebra of Hilbert-Schmidt operators on any countable, locally finite homogeneous simplicial complex X is naturally isomorphic the Alexander-Spanier homology of the space X, Theorem 1. This result may be used to compute the local periodic cyclic homology of the algebra of Hilbert-Schmidt operators on such spaces X. The same result should hold in the case of the algebra of trace class operators L1 as well as in the case of smoothing operators s \subset L 1. In addition, the tools we introduce in this paper should apply also for computing the local Hochschild and periodic cyclic homology of the Schatten class ideals Lp, at least for the other values 1 < p < 2. Parts of what is presented here were stated in author's lecture at the International Alexandroff Reading Conference, Moscow, 21-25 May 2012.

The Oka principle for \'etale Chow groups

The celebrated theorems of Shilov, Arens--Royden, and Forster give direct descriptions of the first three integral cohomology groups of the Gelfand spectrum of a commutative complex Banach algebra. In his 1974 ICM address, Taylor asked whether the higher cohomology groups admit descriptions in terms of the underlying ring. We give a solution to this question in even degrees: The \'etale (aka Lichtenbaum) Chow group in every codimension is canonically isomorphic to the corresponding even integral cohomology group of the Gelfand spectrum.

General linear and Steinberg groups over the Leavitt algebra $L_{\mathbb F_2}(1,2)$

Let $R=L_{\F_2}(1,2)$. We prove that $\GL_r(R)$ is integrally acyclic for every $r\geq1$ and that the canonical map $\St_r(R)\to\GL_r(R)$ is an isomorphism for every $r\geq3$. The homology calculation combines simultaneous extensions of ordered frames with scalar actions of the multiplicative groups of finite fields on their stabilizers. The presentation associated with the same frame complex defines a surjective section of the Steinberg map. An explicit finite presentation of $R^\times$ then follows from the theorem of Krsti\'c and McCool. We formulate separate criteria for acyclicity and for the Steinberg comparison over other rings.

The K-theory of uniform Roe algebras for coarse structures generated by finite-rank free abelian subgroups

For a uniformly locally finite coarse space $X$, the uniform Roe algebra $C_u^*(X)$ is the operator norm closure of the controlled operators on $\ell^2(X)$. The $K$-theory of uniform Roe algebras is known in asymptotic dimension zero, but it is not fully understood in higher dimensions. We compute $K_0(C_u^*(G,\mathcal E))$ and $K_1(C_u^*(G,\mathcal E))$ for every countable discrete abelian group $G$ and every finite-rank free abelian subgroup $H\leq G$, where $\mathcal E$ is the coarse structure generated by $H$. We use the Proietti--Yamashita spectral sequence to express the $K$-theory in terms of $H_*(H;\ell^\infty(G,\mathbb Z))$, which we then compute.
