General theory of (C^*)-algebras (46L05) Equivariant homology and cohomology in algebraic topology (55N91)

Abstract: This is a survey of a variety of equivariant (co)homology theories for operator algebras. We briefly discuss a background on equivariant theories, such as equivariant $K$-theory and equivariant cyclic homology. As the main focus, we discuss a notion of equivariant $L^2$-cohomology and equivariant $L^2$-Betti numbers for subalgebras of a von Neumann algebra. For graded $C^{\ast }$-algebras (with grading over a group) we elaborate on a notion of graded $L^2$-cohomology and its relation to equivariant $L^2$-cohomology.
