K-Theory And Steenrod Homology: Applications To The Brown-Douglas-Fillmore Theory Of Operator Algebras, Jerome Kaminker, Claude Schochet Jan 1977

K-Theory And Steenrod Homology: Applications To The Brown-Douglas-Fillmore Theory Of Operator Algebras, Jerome Kaminker, Claude Schochet

Mathematics Faculty Research Publications

The remarkable work of L. G. Brown, R. Douglas and P. Fillmore on operators with compact self-commutators once again ties together algebraic topology and operator theory. This paper gives a comprehensive treatment of certain aspects of that connection and some adjacent topics. In anticipation that both operator theorists and topologists may be interested in this work, additional background material is included to facilitate access.

The recent work of Larry Brown, R. G. Douglas, and Peter Fillmore on operator algebras has created a new bridge between functional analysis and algebraic topology. This note constitutes an effort to make that bridge more concrete.
