Various L2-signatures and a topological L2-signature theorem | Wolfgang Lueck Thomas Schick
; | Date: |
13 Sep 2002 | Subject: | Geometric Topology; Algebraic Topology; K-Theory and Homology | math.GT math.AT math.KT | Affiliation: | Muenster) Thomas Schick (Goettingen | Abstract: | For a normal covering over a closed oriented topological manifold we give a proof of the L2-signature theorem with twisted coefficients, using Lipschitz structures and the Lipschitz signature operator introduced by Teleman. We also prove that the L-theory isomorphism conjecture as well as the C^*_max-version of the Baum-Connes conjecture imply the L2-signature theorem for a normal covering over a Poincar space, provided that the group of deck transformations is torsion-free. We discuss the various possible definitions of L2-signatures (using the signature operator, using the cap product of differential forms, using a cap product in cellular L2-cohomology,...) in this situation, and prove that they all coincide. | Source: | arXiv, math.GT/0209161 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
