Gelfand-Fuchs cohomology and M-Theory as a Topological Quantum Field Theory
Ioannis P. Zois
We introduce a Lagrangian density for M-Theory which is purely topological using Gelfand-Fuchs cohomology. Next we calculate the partition function which indeed gives topological i…

Ioannis P. Zois
We introduce a new invariant for foliations using the even pairing between K-homology and cyclic homology and discuss some possible applications in physics.
