An invariant for pairs of almost commuting unbounded operators
Abstract
For a wide class of pairs of unbounded selfadjoint operators with bounded commutator we construct a K-theoretical integer invariant which is continuous, is equal to zero for commuting operators and is equal to one for the pair (x, i d/dx).
