A generalization of the topological Brauer group
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 04 March 2008
Abstract
In the present paper we study some homotopy invariants which can be defined by means of bundles with fiber being a matrix algebra. In particular, we introduce some generalization of the Brauer group in the topological context and show that any of its elements can be represented as a locally trivial bundle with the structure group , k ∈ . Finally, we discuss its possible applications in the twisted K-theory.
