Abstract
For a bundle of compact Lie groups \(p\colon {\cal G} \to B\) over a compactum \(B\) (with the structure group of automorphisms of the corresponding group), we introduce the gauge-equivariant \(K\)-theory group \(K_{{\cal G}}^{0}(X; {\mathcal A} )\) of a bundle \(\pi_{X}\colon X \to B\) endowed with a continuous action of \({\cal G}\) constructed using bundles \(E\to X\) with the typical fiber being a projective finitely generated module over a unital \(C^*\)-algebra \( {\mathcal A} \). The index of a family of gauge-invariant (= \({\cal G}\)-equivariant) Fredholm operators naturally takes values in these groups. We introduce and study products and use them to define the Thom homomorphism in gauge-equivariant \(K\)-theory and prove that this homomorphism is an isomorphism.
期刊介绍:
Russian Journal of Mathematical Physics is a peer-reviewed periodical that deals with the full range of topics subsumed by that discipline, which lies at the foundation of much of contemporary science. Thus, in addition to mathematical physics per se, the journal coverage includes, but is not limited to, functional analysis, linear and nonlinear partial differential equations, algebras, quantization, quantum field theory, modern differential and algebraic geometry and topology, representations of Lie groups, calculus of variations, asymptotic methods, random process theory, dynamical systems, and control theory.
