${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb C)$-equivariant K-theory of $\mathbb C P^1$

Consider the action of ${\rm SL}_2(\mathbb C)$ on $\mathbb C P^1$ induced by the action of 2×2 matrices on 2-vectors. Is it true that $K^{{\rm SL}_2(\mathbb C)}(\mathbb C P^1)$ is $\mathbb C[t,t^{-1}]$...

Equivalent descriptions of equivariant K-theory

I am looking at references for computing $$K_{T}(G/H)$$ where $G$ is a compact connected Lie group with maximal torus $T$, and $H\subset G$ is a corank one Lie subgroup such that $G/H\cong S^{2k-1}$ ...

Equivariant sheaves on $\mathbb P^1$

Let $K(\mathbb P^1)$ be the Grothendieck group of sheaves on $\mathbb P^1$. I want to show that the map $K^{{\rm PGL}(2)\times \{\pm 1\}}(\mathbb P^1) \to K(\mathbb P^1)$ is not onto. I read somewhere ...

Vector bundles on $\mathbb{A}^n / G$

Let $G$ be a finite group acting linearly on $\mathbb{A}^n$. Do we expect algebraic vector bundles on $X := \mathbb{A}^n/G$ to be trivial? Here by the quotient I mean the singular scheme, not the ...

Fundamental class in equivariant K-theory

I'm looking for an accessible reference for the definition of the fundamental class in equivariant K-theory. The setup I'm interested in is the following: suppose $V$ is a vector space equipped with ...

Baum Connes conjecture and abstract isomorphism

Baum-Connes conjecture states that for a locally compact group $G$ the so called assebly map $\mu$ between $G$-equivariant K-homology of the universal example for proper actions of $G$ and K-theory of ...

Milnor's model of $EG$ and Kac-Moody groups

I am working with non-compact Kac-Moody groups $\mathcal{K}$. We can use Milnor's join model for $E\mathcal{K}=\varinjlim \mathcal{K}^{*n}$, where $\mathcal{K}^{*n}$ is the iterated join (see page 20 ...

Equivariant algebraic K-theory of affine space

Unlike algebraic K-theory, equivariant K-theory of affine space (over a field $k$) can be quite nontrivial, depending on the action of the group in question. For example, if one takes the standard ...

Equivariant K-theory of $S^1$-action on $S^2$

Is there any references for the structure of the equivariant K-theory $K_{S^1}(S^2)$ where the action of $S^1$ on $S^2$ is defined to be rotation about the $z$-axis? What is the ring structore of $K_{...
