»Beyond ellipticity : K-homology and index theory«

Abstract:
K-homology is the dual theory to K-theory. The BD (Baum-Douglas) isomorphism of Kasparov K-homology and K-cycle K-homology can be taken as providing a framework within which the Atiyah-Singer index theorem can be extended to certain non-elliptic operators. This talk will consider a class of non-elliptic differential operators on compact contact manifolds. These operators have been studied by a number of mathematicians. Working within the BD framework, the index problem will be solved for these operators. This is joint work with Erik van Erp.
