Derived Azumaya Algebrais and Twisted K-theory

Topological K-theory of dg-categories is a localizing invariant of dg-categories over [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbb{C} }[/math] taking values in the infinity category of [math]\displaystyle{ KU }[/math]-modules. In this talk I describe a relative version of this construction; namely for X a quasi-compact, quasi-separated C-scheme I construct a functor valued in the infinity category of sheaves of spectra on X(C), the complex points of X. For inputs of the form Perf(X, A) where A is an Azumaya algebra over X, I characterize the values of this functor in terms of the twisted topological K-theory of X(C). From this I deduce a certain decomposition, for X a finite CW-complex equipped with a bundle P of projective spaces over X, of KU(P) in terms of the twisted topological K-theory of X ; this is a topological analogue of a result of Quillen’s on the algebraic K-theory of Severi-Brauer schemes.
