A transverse index theorem in the calculus of filtered manifolds

Abstract

We use filtrations of the tangent bundle of a manifold starting with an integrable subbundle to define transverse symbols to the corresponding foliation, define a condition of transversally Rockland and prove that transversally Rockland operators yield a K-homology class. We construct an equivariant KK-class for transversally Rockland transverse symbols and show a Poincare duality type result linking the class of an operator and its symbol.
