Topological and Bivariant K-Theory

Topological K-theory is one of the most important invariants for noncommutative algebras equipped with a suitable topology or bornology. Bott periodicity, homotopy invariance, and various long exact sequences distinguish it from algebraic K-theory. We describe a bivariant K-theory for bornological a...
