Aug 14, 2013 at 16:54 comment added Rohan Lean @Urs: I doubt that there is a satisfying absolute answer to that, but perhaps some people know many satisfying examples. I suggest that you ask that as a new question.
Aug 14, 2013 at 16:54 comment added Rohan Lean @Rasmus: No, example 5.3 in the same article gives a counterexample to that.
Aug 14, 2013 at 11:39 comment added Rasmus @Rohan: Perhaps the $K$-theory functor would have a chance of being strongly monoidal if one considered the maximal tensor product instead of the minimal one (both descend to $\mathrm{KK}$)?
Aug 13, 2013 at 23:59 comment added Urs Schreiber Maybe I am actually just interested in the bootstrat subcategory, given that it contains the convolution algebras of amenable Lie groupoids. What's the largest class of groupoid convolution algebras in the bootstrap?

Aug 13, 2013 at 23:09 comment added Urs Schreiber Thanks for the pointer! Concerning "natural": I just meant to exclude unwanted solutions such as the monoidal functor which is constant on the tensor unit. I don't want any monoidal functor $KK \to KU Mod$, but one that does what it is expected to do.
Aug 13, 2013 at 23:02 comment added Rohan Lean @Urs: the K-theory functor cannot be strongly monoidal (c.f. arxiv.org/pdf/1111.7228.pdf, example 3.9). I am not entirely sure what you mean by ‘natural’, but I suspect that the answer is ‘no’. There is a functor between quasi-categories that covers the K-theory functor. More generic statements of this kind are part of my thesis, which is yet unfinished and unavailable.
Aug 13, 2013 at 7:30 comment added Urs Schreiber @Rohan, while the pointer to Dell'Ambrogio et al that Rasmus provided is very useful, I'd still be interested in what you might have to say about the functor to $KU Mod$. Can you produce a genuine $\infty$-functor of (stable) $\infty$-categories, maybe? Also, the functor in Dell'Ambrogio et al is only lax monoidal. I am not sure if this is inevitable. Can we have a natural strongly monoidal functor $KK \to KU Mod$?
Aug 13, 2013 at 7:16 comment added Urs Schreiber Hi @Rohan, thanks a bunch for the detailed reply! It is true that I heard you say something about this before a good while back, but I pretty much forget what the status of that is. Do you have a writeup? Is this in your thesis? Can you give me pointers? I'd be happy to cite this. Now I first need to read your text above. May take a bit, as I am about to hop on a plane over the ocean. But I get back to you then.

Aug 12, 2013 at 23:15 comment added Ricardo Andrade Dear @Rohan: Your answer appears to contain hard-coded bold symbols, subscripts, etc. It does not even render in an alternative but well developed browser which I use. Mathjax is not meant for highlighting math, it is meant to make sure that math will display correctly and not break randomly. I believe your current code for this answer is likely to cause several problems. I have created a meta thread at meta.mathoverflow.net/questions/624/…
