Topic: 

Multiplicative structures and the twisted Baum-Connes assembly map

Description: 

Using some ideas of Atiyah and Segal and a pushforward map defined using deformation groupoids we explain how to endow to the twisted geometric K-homology groups of a discrete group with an external product. Using the Baum-Connes assembly maps one can transfer this product to the twisted K-theory groups of the reduced group C*-algebra. This is a joint work with Noé Barcenas and Paulo Carrillo.
