Some minor additions
Mar 9, 2013 at 20:43 comment added Martin Brandenburg This point explicitly only refers to degree $0$. Thank you for this extension.
Mar 9, 2013 at 19:58 comment added ThiKu In Point 14 the right hand side should not be algebraic K theory, but topological K theory of C^* algebras. (Which agrees with algebraic K theory only in degree 0.)
Jul 30, 2012 at 9:31 comment added Rasmus @Martin: I wanted to add sub-$C^*$-algebras to the list, but couldn't because your post is not CW.
Dec 8, 2011 at 21:23 comment added Martin Brandenburg Indeed. I also used in my article which I linked for 0').
Dec 8, 2011 at 18:24 comment added Yemon Choi Depending on how one defines Gelfand theory (maximal modular ideals etc etc) for non-unital algebras, isn't 8) used in the proof that these categories are contravariantly equivalent? I am probably misremembering, though

Dec 8, 2011 at 17:39 comment added Martin Brandenburg @MTS: The correct maps between locally compact hausdorff spaces are here proper maps. These have closed image. I will add this to 0).
Dec 8, 2011 at 17:21 comment added MTS I think it's worth pointing out that (4) becomes more subtle when the spaces are locally compact but not compact. In that case, a map $f: X \to Y$ induces an injection $C(Y) \to C(X)$ if and only if the range of $f$ is dense in $Y$. Of course if $X$ is compact then $f(X)$ is closed, so there's no difference for compact spaces.

Dec 8, 2011 at 13:45 comment added Alain Valette @Martin: nice list! At some point your list will include $K^*(X)=K_*(C(X))$, which is not considered trivial by any standard (= the Serre-Swan theorem). (:-)
