Harmonic Analysis in Operator Algebras and its Applications to Index Theory and Topological Solid State Systems

This book contains a self-consistent treatment of Besov spaces for W*-dynamical systems, based on the Arveson spectrum and Fourier multipliers. Generalizing classical results by Peller, spaces of Besov operators are then characterized by trace class properties of the associated Hankel operators lying in the W*-crossed product algebra. 

These criteria allow to extend index theorems to such operator ...
