The quotient is the mapping torus of
A mapping torus of a cellular map has a finite CW structure. On integral homology, is on and and is on . The Wang sequence therefore gives
Over , the map is the identity. The Wang sequence splits as vector spaces into one copy of and one copy of , yielding
The involution is free. Taking the first circle modulo the half-turn exhibits the quotient as the mapping torus of a reflection of , hence as the Klein bottle. It has a finite CW structure with one zero-cell, two one-cells, and one two-cell. With suitable generators its integral cellular differential is
Therefore
whereas reduction modulo two kills the only nonzero boundary and gives
The Bott isomorphism is multiplication by the Bott element :
Together with the suspension isomorphism and
it gives the Complex K-theory of a sphere
Let
be a CW filtration in which each quotient is a wedge of even-dimensional spheres. The six-term exact sequence in Topological K-theory, the sphere calculation, and induction give
and a short exact sequence whose new summand in is free abelian on the newly attached cells. Every such extension splits as an extension of free abelian groups, so is free, with one generator for each cell. This proves the Complex K-theory of an even-cell complex result.
The exterior product defines
For a point it is the identity. Attaching one layer of even cells gives corresponding exact sequences on the source and target; the sphere case is the suspension isomorphism, and induction with the Five lemma proves that the product map remains an isomorphism. This is the Künneth theorem for complex K-theory with an even-cell factor.
For a mapping torus , the K-theory Wang sequence of a mapping torus contains
When , exactness gives
For , the Complex K-theory of complex projective space and the K-theory Künneth isomorphism give
The factor swap interchanges and . Its invariant subgroup has the basis
It follows that the K-theory of the mapping torus of the factor swap on two complex projective planes is
