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

From papers

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 Ktop(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)Ktop(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.
