Abstract: | Using the index theorem of Connes and Moscovici and the cyclic cocycle associated to a group cocycle, we prove the Novikov conjecture for the generalized Godbillon–Vey cocycle, which has been defined by Tsuboi through area functionals. As a corollary, we get a new proof of the fact that Thompson’s groups T and F satisfy the Novikov conjecture. |
