The Chern Character Of Semifinite Spectral Triples, Alan L. Carey, John Phillips, Adam C. Rennie, Fyodor A. Sukochev
Associate Professor Adam Rennie
In previous work we generalised both the odd and even local index formula of Connes and Moscovici to the case of spectral triples for a ∗-subalgebra A of a general semifinite von Neumann algebra. Our proofs are novel even in the setting of the original theorem and rely on the introduction of a function valued cocycle (called the resolvent cocycle) which is 'almost' a (b,B)-cocycle in the cyclic cohomology of A. In this paper we show that this resolvent cocycle 'almost' represents the Chern character, and assuming analytic continuation properties for zeta functions, we show that the associated residue cocycle, …
