Infinite Loop Spaces and Group Actions on Strongly Self-Absorbing C*-Algebras

Ulrich Pennig, George Tridimas

Lifting obstructions for group actions, cocycle actions, and -kernels admit a cohomological description via topological crossed modules, as recently developed by Izumi, Giron-Pa…

G-kernels and Crossed Modules

Sergio Girón Pacheco, Masaki Izumi, Ulrich Pennig

We develop a unified framework based on topological crossed modules for various lifting obstructions for -kernels. It allows us to identify actions, cocycle actions and -kern…

Computing Connection Matrices of Conley Complexes via Algebraic Morse Theory

Álvaro Torras-Casas, Ka Man Yim, Ulrich Pennig

Given a poset-graded chain complex of vector spaces, a Conley complex is the minimal chain-homotopic reduction of the initial complex that respects the poset grading. A connection…

Units of -equivariant -theory and bundles of UHF-algebras

Valerio Bianchi, Ulrich Pennig

We consider infinite tensor product actions of a finite cyclic group on the UHF-algebra for a finite-dimensional projectively faithful unit…

Spanier-Whitehead K-Duality and Duality of Extensions of -algebras

Ulrich Pennig, Taro Sogabe

KK-theory is a bivariant and homotopy-invariant functor on -algebras that combines K-theory and K-homology. KK-groups form the morphisms in a triangulated category. Spanier-Wh…

A survey on operator -theory via homotopical algebra

Ulrich Bunke, Markus Land, Ulrich Pennig

This is a survey article with the goal to advertise spectrum valued versions of - and - theory for -algebras via a (stable and symmetric monoidal) -categorica…

Spectral Sequence Computation of Higher Twisted -Groups of

David E. Evans, Ulrich Pennig

Motivated by the Freed-Hopkins-Teleman theorem we study graded equivariant higher twists of -theory for the groups induced by exponential functors. We compute the ra…

Computing cohomology groups that classify bundles of strongly self-absorbing -algebras

Marius Dadarlat, James E. McClure, Ulrich Pennig

Locally trivial bundles of -algebras with fibre for a strongly self-absorbing -algebra over a finite CW-complex form a group th…

Bundles of strongly self-absorbing -algebras with a Clifford grading

Marius Dadarlat, Ulrich Pennig

We extend our previous results on generalized Dixmier-Douady theory to graded -algebras, as means for explicit computations of the invariants arising for bundles of ungraded $…

Equivariant higher Dixmier-Douady Theory for circle actions on UHF-algebras

David E. Evans, Ulrich Pennig

We develop an equivariant Dixmier-Douady theory for locally trivial bundles of -algebras with fibre equipped with a fibrewise -action, where…

Interleaving Mayer-Vietoris spectral sequences

Álvaro Torras, Ulrich Pennig

We discuss the Mayer-Vietoris spectral sequence as an invariant in the context of persistent homology. In particular, we introduce the notion of -acyclic carriers and…

Equivariant higher twisted K-theory of SU(n) for exponential functor twists

David E. Evans, Ulrich Pennig

We prove that each exponential functor on the category of finite-dimensional complex inner product spaces and isomorphisms gives rise to an equivariant higher (ie. non-classical) t…

Exponential Functors, R-Matrices and Twists

Ulrich Pennig

In this paper we show that each polynomial exponential functor on complex finite-dimensional inner product spaces is defined up to equivalence of monoidal functors by an involutive…

Yang-Baxter representations of the infinite symmetric group

Gandalf Lechner, Ulrich Pennig, Simon Wood

Every unitary involutive solution of the quantum Yang-Baxter equation ("R-matrix") defines an extremal character and a representation of the infinite symmetric group . We…

Deformations of Wreath Products

Marius Dadarlat, Ulrich Pennig, Andrew Schneider

Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of a separable C*-algebra A which has three important consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and realizatio…

Connective C*-algebras

Marius Dadarlat, Ulrich Pennig

Connectivity is a homotopy invariant property of separable C*-algebras which has three notable consequences: absence of nontrivial projections, quasidiagonality and a more geometri…

Locally Trivial W*-Bundles

Samuel Evington, Ulrich Pennig

We prove that a tracially continuous W-bundle over a compact Hausdorff space with all fibres isomorphic to the hyperfinite II-factor that is…

Deformations of nilpotent groups and homotopy symmetric -algebras

Marius Dadarlat, Ulrich Pennig

The homotopy symmetric -algebras are those separable -algebras for which one can unsuspend in E-theory. We find a new simple condition that characterizes homotopy symmetr…

Crossed module actions on continuous trace -algebras

Ralf Meyer, Ulrich Pennig

We lift an action of a torus on the spectrum of a continuous trace algebra to an action of a certain crossed module of Lie groups that is an extension of $\mathbb{R}…

A noncommutative model for higher twisted K-Theory

Ulrich Pennig

We develop a operator algebraic model for twisted -theory, which includes the most general twistings as a generalized cohomology theory (i.e. all those classified by the unit sp…
