Rosenberg's conjecture on topological and algebraic K-theory of C*-algebras

At least 1 year old · documented by

Let AA be a real C*-algebra. For an abelian group of coefficients, write K∗(A;Z/n)K_{*}(A;\mathbf{Z}/n) for algebraic K-theory with coefficients and K∗top(A;Z/n)K^{\textnormal{top}}_{*}(A;\mathbf{Z}/n) for topological K-theory with coefficients.

Rosenberg's conjecture.

  1. For n>0n>0, the map
K∗(A;Z/n)→K∗top(A;Z/n)K_{*}(A;\mathbf{Z}/n)\to K^{\textnormal{top}}_{*}(A;\mathbf{Z}/n)

is an isomorphism for ∗≥0{*}\geq0. 2. The tautological map

K∗(A)→K∗(C([0,1];A))K_{*}(A)\to K_{*}(\mathscr{C}([0,1];A))

is an isomorphism for ∗≤0{*}\leq0.

This conjecture compares algebraic and topological K-theory for real C*-algebras and predicts homotopy invariance in the nonpositive degrees. The source presents it as a conjecture of Rosenberg; no resolution is supplied here.
