Description
An Introduction to K-Theory for C*-Algebras by M. Rørdam, Flemming Larsen, and N. Laustsen provides a fundamental introduction to this rapidly growing area of mathematics.
The authors explore the basic properties of the functors K and K1, including the Bott periodicity theorem and the six-term exact sequence. With over 120 exercises and examples, this book is an ideal resource for beginning graduate students in functional analysis and operator algebras, as well as researchers from other areas of mathematics looking to learn about K-theory.
Published by Cambridge University Press, this paperback edition offers a comprehensive overview of the subject, making it a valuable addition to any mathematics library.
