Abstract

A Riemannian manifold is said to have infinite $\mathcal{KO}$-width if it admits an isometric immersion of an arbitrarily wide Riemannian band whose inward boundary has non-trivial higher index. In this paper we prove that if a closed spin manifold has inifinite $\mathcal{KO}$-width, then its Rosenberg index does not vanish. This gives a positive answer to a conjecture by R. Zeidler. We also prove its `multi-dimensional' generalization; if a closed spin manifold admit an isometric immersion of an arbitrarily wide cube-like domain whose lowest dimensional corner has non-trivial higher index, then the Rosenberg index of $M$ does not vanish.

$E$-theory is compactly assembled

We show that the equivariant $E$-theory category $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{sep}}^{G}$ for separable $C^{*}$-algebras is a compactly assembled stable $\infty$-category. We derive this result as a consequence of the shape theory for $C^{*}$-algebras developed by Blackadar and Dardarlat and a new construction of $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{sep}}^{G}$. As an application we investigate a topological enrichment of the homotopy category of a compactly assembled $\infty$-category in general and argue that the results of Carrión and Schafhauser on the enrichment of the classical $E$-theory category can be derived by specialization.

Scissors automorphism groups I: Homological stability and K-theory

In any category with a reasonable notion of cover, each object has a group of scissors automorphisms. We prove that under mild conditions, the homology of this group is independent of the object, and can be expressed in terms of the scissors congruence K-theory spectrum defined by Zakharevich. We therefore obtain both a group-theoretic interpretation of Zakharevich's higher scissors congruence K-theory, as well as a method to compute the homology of scissors automorphism groups. In the classical case of scissors congruence of polytopes, this leads to calculations and structural results on the homology of the scissors automorphism group. In two sequels, we show that more generally our approach leads to homology calculations for various families of groups appearing in group theory and dynamics, recovering results of Szymik-Wahl, Li, and Tanner.
