Abstract:

Quantitative K-theory for C-algebras originated in the work of Guoliang Yu on the Novikov conjecture and the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture. More recently, it has also been used to study the K-theory of various classes of C-algebras and has been generalized to be applicable to more general Banach algebras. In this series of lectures, I will give an introduction to the notion of quantitative K-theory for Banach algebras. I will also present some joint work with Kang Li on Lp uniform Roe algebras associated to metric spaces with bounded geometry. One result is about surjectivity of the map on K_0 groups induced by the diagonal inclusion when the metric space has asymptotic dimension one, and this will be an example where quantitative K-theory is used. Another result (not involving K-theory) is about the rigidity of these algebras, which indicates that they are (possibly) more rigid when p is not 2 than when p=2.
