Which of the physics dualities are closest in essence to the Spanier-Whitehead duality (with a subquestion)?
First of all, what I want to ask is slightly more elaborate than what stands in the title (hence the subquestion).
I am telling this since as it is, the title contains a meaningful question, but it ...

What is the equivariant cohomology of a group acting on itself by conjugation?
This question makes sense for any topological group $G$, but I'd particularly like to know the answer for $G$ a compact, connected Lie group.
$G$ acts on itself by conjugation. One has the equivariant ...

Which motivic cohomology groups of complex numbers are non-torsion?
I would like to know which motivic cohomology groups of complex numbers are non-zero and ("better") non-torsion, i.e., for which $(i,j)$ the $i$th cohomology of the complex ${\mathbb{Q}}(j)$ over $\...

References for equivariant K-theory
I want a good introduction to localization in equivariant $K$-theory. This introduction can be simple in several ways:
I only care about torus actions.
I only care about $K^0$.
I only care about very ...

Poincaré duality for topological $K$-theory
Let $n$ be an even number. Let $X$ be a $n$-dimensional complex projective manifold with
$H^{2m+1}(X,\mathbb{Z})=0$, for all $0\leq m\leq n-1$.
$H^{2m}(X,\mathbb{Z})$ is a free $\mathbb{Z}$-module ...

Comparison of K-groups of (affine) singular schemes with K'=G-groups
It is well known that Quillen K-theory coincides with $K'=G$-theory for regular schemes, and can be distinct from it for singular ones. Are there any methods for studying this distinctions? In ...

Duality between K-theory and K-homology in the non-compact, spin$^c$ case
Let $M$ be a compact spin$^c$ manifold, so that it has a fundamental class $[M] \in K_n(M)$. It is well-known that the cap product with $[M]$ induces Poincare duality isomorphisms $K^\ast(M) \cong K_\...

Is $K^0(X)\to K_0(X)$ monomorphic for a noetherian scheme $X$?
This question is related to the MO questions What is the difference between Grothendieck groups K_0(X) vs K^0(X) on schemes? and Does a fully faithful functor between triangulated categories induce ...

K-theory of coherent sheaves on complex manifolds: references and gamma-filtration?
For a complex manifold $X$ one has an exact category of locally free coherent sheaves; so it seems to be no problem to define certain $K$-theory (I do not know whether the $K$-groups given by the "...

Varieties with Chow groups supported in positive codimension: examples and properties?
In their 1983 paper "Remarks on correspondences and algebraic cycles" Bloch and Srinivas proved several interesting properties of smooth proper varieties (over universal domains) whose Chow groups of ...

Does a fully faithful functor between triangulated categories induce embedding of their Grothendieck groups?
Let $\mathcal{A}$, $\mathcal{B}$ be two triangulated categories and $F: \mathcal{A}\to \mathcal{B}$ be a triangulated functor between them. Then $F$ induces an homomorphism between their Grothendieck ...

On two notions of 'generators' for a 'large' triangulated category
Let $C$ be a triangulated category that is closed with respect to arbitrary small coproducts; let $D$ be some class of objects of $C$. Then it would be natural to say that $D$ generates $C$ either if
