Abstract:
In the early 90s, Marc Rieffel proved that K-groups of C∗-algebras are invariant under strict deformations. In this talk, we will explain a generalization of this theorem to the equivariant setting. As an application, this result allows us to compute K-groups of some noncommutative orbifold algebras. (Joint work with Yijun Yao).
