Abstract: Kasparov defined a distinguished K-homology fundamental class, so called the Dirac element. We prove a localization formula for the Dirac element in K-homology of crossed product of C^{*}-algebras. Then we define the quantization of Hamiltonian G-spaces as a push-forward of the Dirac element. With this, we develop a K-homological approach to the quantization commutes with reduction theorem.

Review text

The purpose of this paper is to study the ``quantization commutes with reduction principle. \textit{G. G. Kasparov} [Invent. Math. 91, No. 1, 147--201 (1988; Zbl 0647.46053)] defined a distinguished \(K\)-homology fundamental class, the so-called Dirac element. In Section 2, a brief review on Kasparov's approach to analytic \(K\)-homology is given. In Section 3, following an idea of Witten, using perturbation of the de Rham complex by a \(G\)-invariant vector field, a localization formula for the Dirac element is obtained. The goal of Section 4 is to study the push-forward index of non-compact manifolds which have structures of total spaces of vector bundles. The key property of the cubic Dirac operator is that its square equals to the quadratic Casimir operator up to low-order terms. In Section 5, the cubic Dirac operator is studied.
