Abstract: Assume that we are given a coaction delta of a locally compact group G on a C*-algebra A and a T-valued Borel 2-cocycle omega on G. Motivated by the approach of Kasprzak to Rieffel's deformation we define a deformation A_omega of A. Among other properties of A_omega we show that A_omegaotimes K(L^2(G)) is canonically isomorphic to A times_deltahat G times_{hatdelta,omega}G. This, together with a slight extension of a result of Echterhoff et al., implies that for groups satisfying the Baum-Connes conjecture the K-theory of A_omega remains invariant under homotopies of omega.
