Abstract: With an action alpha of mathbbRn on a C-algebra A and a skew-symmetric nimesn matrix Theta one can consider the Rieffel deformation ATheta of A, which is a C-algebra generated by the alpha-smooth elements of A with a new multiplication. The purpose of this paper is to obtain explicit formulas for K-theoretical quantities defined by elements of ATheta. We assume that there is a densely defined trace on A, invariant under the action. We give an explicit realization of Thom class in KK in any dimension n, and use it in the index pairings. When n is odd, for example, we give a formula for the index of operators of the form PpiTheta(u)P, where piTheta(u) is the operator of left Rieffel multiplication by an invertible element u over the unitization of A, and P is projection onto the nonnegative eigenspace of a Dirac operator constructed from the action alpha. The results are new also for the undeformed case Theta=0. The construction relies on two approaches to Rieffel deformations in addition to Rieffel's original one: "Kasprzak deformation" and "warped convolution". We end by outlining potential applications in mathematical physics.
