On linear functionals with the trace property that aren't positive

Suppose $A$ is a C*-algebra and $\phi:A \to \mathbb{C}$ is a bounded linear functional satisfying $\phi(ab) = \phi(ba)$ (I call this the trace property). How far is $\phi$ from being a (positive) trac …

Topological K-theory for commutative C*-algebras

Using the Chern Character you can solve the problem up to torsion. For a CW complex X we have $K_0(C(X)) \otimes \mathbb{Q} \cong \bigoplus_n H_{2n}(X; \mathbb{Q})$ and $K_1(C(X)) \otimes \mathbb{Q} …
