Report summary:
Uniform Roe algebras are typically C*-algebras on discrete metric spaces which reflect large scale geometry of the underlying spaces. Recently, the l^p versions of uniform Roe algebras have attracted muchattention due to their applications in operator theory, operator algebras and K-theory.
In this talk, we will determine a large class of dense subspaces of l^p uniform Roe algebras of discrete groups whose elements can be approximated in operator norm by their band truncations. Under an l^p version of Rapid Decay condition, we construct a spectral invariant subalgebra of the l^p uniform Roe algebra of a discrete group. We also establish that the K-theory groups of these l^p operator algebras on discrete metric spaces with Yu's property (A) depend continuously on p.
