On Connes' fomulae of pairing between cyclic cohomology and K-theory
The following proposition comes from Connes' paper in IHES. See the link Non-commutative differential geometry.
On page 109, Proposition 15. of Part II, he claims that
(1) The following equality ...

The Loday-Quillen-Tsygan theorem for topological (Fréchet) algebras
In "Additive K-theory" by Tsygan and Feigin, Section 0.4, a statement is given which seems to generalize (cohomological version of) the well-known Loday-Quillen-Tsygan theorem
$$H_{\text{CE}}...

Relative de Rham Cohomology groups of k-algebra
Let $A$ be a commutative unital $k$-algebra. Then we have de Rham complex given as:
$C_{\ast}(A)$ : $ 0 \rightarrow A \rightarrow \Omega_{A \lvert k}^{1} \rightarrow \Omega_{A \lvert k}^{2} \...

A 2- cocycle $\tau$ which is not cyclic but it still satisfies the stability of $\tau(e,e,e)$ for idempotent $e$
I learned the following statement from page $20$ of the book Noncommutative Geometry by Alain Connes:
Let $\tau$ be a $2$-cyclic cocyle on a $C^*$ algebra. Then for every smooth curve $e(t)$ of ...

Connes-Chern pairing, compatibility with periodicity operator in the odd case
Let $A$ be an algebra (say unital). For an odd (say $2n-1$) cyclic cocycle $\varphi$ and a class in $K_1(A)$ represented by invertible $u$ we define
$$\langle [\varphi],[u] \rangle:=\frac{2^{-(2n+1)}}...

Pairing between cyclic cohomology and $K$-theory: the odd case
I would like to understand the proof of Proposition 15 (see page 70 in this link ). More precisely: I would like to understand a particular step in the proof namely:
Why $\frac{d}{dt}(\varphi \# ...

Two approaches to periodic cyclic cohomology
Cyclic cohomology may be defined in several ways: the easiest way to define it is via a subcomplex $C^*_{\lambda}$of Hochschild complex consisting from cyclic cochains. There are also other ...

Relative version of Hopf cyclic cohomology
In this paper Connes and Moscovici introduced the Hopf algebra of transverse differential operators in order to compute the index formula for the diffeomorphism invariant geometry. They developed the ...

Dense subalgebra of continuous functions with same K -theory
Suppose $X$ is a compact metric space. Is there a good candidate for a dense subalgebra $A\subseteq C(X)$, such that the inclusion induces an isomorphism in $K$-theory?
For example, if $X$ was a ...

Normalization of cyclic cocycles
This question is a continuation of the discussion
Normalization of Hochschild cocycles
but this time in the cyclic context. I would like to ask whether the following is true:
The inclusion of ...

Quasi isomorphism for bicomplexes both defining cyclic cohomology
Let $A$ be a complex unital algebra. Consider the cyclic (cohomological) bicomplex $\mathcal{C}(A)$. This is a bicomplex
where in the $p$-th row one has $C^p(A)$ (the space of all $p+1$-linear forms) ...

Injectivity of the Chern character in $K$-homology
Let $(\pi,H,F)$ be a Fredholm module: here $\pi:A \to B(H)$ is a representation of an algebra on the Hilbert space $H$ and $F$ is a self adjoint operator with square one such that for each $a \in A$ ...

Isomorphism in cyclic cohomology vs isomorphism in Hochschild cohomology
Let $A$ be a unital algebra over a field $K$, $C^n(A)$ a space of all $n+1$ linear maps into scalar field $k$ (I'm interested in case $k=\mathbb{C}$) and
$$(bf)(a_0,...,a_{n+1})=\sum_{i=0}^n(-1)^if(...

Soft Question: What does periodic cyclic theory measure?
Ex1) The cyclic homology of $\mathbb{C}[X,Y]$ and that of the algebra of functions on the sphere $S^2$ have the same periodic cyclic homology. Clearly, however, these objects are topologically very ...
