K-homology and D-branes

In the spirit of the work of P. Baum and R. Douglas in K-homology, we construct a set of abelian groups which define homotopy functors from the category of finite CWpairs onto the category of graded abelian groups. These we prove to be isomorphic to the geometric representation of KO-homology, the h...
