Akhet Khufu: Archaeo-astronomical Hints at a Common Project of the Two Main Pyramids of Giza, Egypt
Abstract. The architectural complexes composed by the two main pyramids of Giza together with their temples are investigated from an interdisciplinary point of view, taking into account their astronomical alignments as well as their relationships with the visible landscape. Combining already known facts together with new clues, the work strongly supports the idea that the two complexes were conceived as parts of a common project
Equivariant comparison of quantum homogeneous spaces
We prove the deformation invariance of the quantum homogeneous spaces of the
q-deformation of simply connected simple compact Lie groups over the
Poisson-Lie quantum subgroups, in the equivariant KK-theory with respect to the
translation action by maximal tori. This extends a result of Neshveyev-Tuset to
the equivariant setting. As applications, we prove the ring isomorphism of the
K-group of Gq with respect to the coproduct of C(Gq), and an analogue of the
Borsuk-Ulam theorem for quantum spheres.Comment: 21 page
