Deformation of algebras associated with group cocycles
arXiv:1107.2512
Abstract
We study deformation of algebras with coaction symmetry of reduced algebra of discrete groups, where the deformation parameter is given continuous family of group -cocycles. When the group satisfies the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients, we obtain isomorphism of K-groups of the deformed algebras. This extends both the -deformation of Rieffel on -actions, and a recent result of Echterhoff, Lück, Phillips, and Walters on the K-groups on the twisted group algebras.
