摘要
For a unitary representation phi of the fundamental group of a compact smooth manifold, Atiyah, Patodi, Singer defined the so called alpha-invariant of phi using the Chern-Simons invariants. In this article using traces on C*-algebras, we give an intrinsic definition of an element in KK with real coefficients theory whose pullback by the representation phi is the alpha-invariant.
