Spectral morphisms, K-theory, and stable ranks
We study the interplay between spectral morphisms, K-theory, and stable ranks for Banach algebras and, more generally, for Frechet algebras with open group of invertibles. After some preliminaries on the Gelfand transform, smooth subalgebras, and the property of Rapid Decay, we investigate closely f...
