This applies in particular to negative algebraic K-theory. We develop the technology of Kasparov modules in an algebraic setting in order to obtain the results. The article also includes a computation of the first algebraic K-theory of harmonic operator ideals.K-Theory and HomologyOperator Algebras18G, 19K, 46H, 46L80, 46M, 58B34Algebraic K-theory and locally convex algebrastext
