On the Poincaré isomorphism in \(K\)-theory on manifolds with edges



Abstract: The aim of this paper is to construct the Poincare isomorphism in K-theory on manifolds with edges. We show that the Poincare isomorphism can naturally be constructed in the framework of noncommutative geometry. More precisely, to a manifold with edges we assign a noncommutative algebra and construct an isomorphism between the K-group of this algebra and the K-homology group of the manifold with edges viewed as a compact topological space.


Manifolds with edges are a class of manifolds with a specific kind of nonisolated singularities. They are obtained by collapsing the fibers of the smooth bundle with a smooth closed base whose total space is the boundary of the manifold \(M\). The authors construct the Poincaré isomorphism between the \(K\)-group of a certain noncommutative algebra \(A\) and the group of analytic \(K\)-cohomologies of the algebra of continuous functions on \(M\). This is a generalization of the classical Poincaré isomorphism as the algebra \(A\) is the algebra of continuous functions when \(M\) is a smooth manifold.
