Boundaries, spectral triples and K-homology
This paper extends the notion of a spectral triple to a relative spectral triple, an unbounded analogue of a relative Fredholm module for an ideal J◃A. Examples include manifolds with boundary, manifolds with conical singularities, dimension drop algebras, θ-deformations and Cuntz–Pimsner algebras of vector bundles.The bounded transform of a relative spectral triple is a relative Fredholm module,
