Transgressing the algebraic coarse character map
Alexander Engel, Matthias Ludewig
We pursue an old conjecture of John Roe about the algebraic K-theory of the algebra of finite propagation, locally trace-class operators, namely that transgressing the algebraic co…

The relative index in coarse index theory and submanifold obstructions to uniform positive scalar curvature
Alexander Engel, Christopher Wulff
We provide a coarse version of the relative index of Gromov and Lawson and thoroughly establish all of its basic properties. As an application, we discuss a general procedure to co…
