Karoubi’s relative Chern character and Beilinson’s regulator
We construct a variant of Karoubi’s relative Chern character for smooth varieties over and prove a comparison result with Beilinson’s regulator with values in Deligne-Beilinson cohomology. As a corollary we obtain a new proof of Burgos’ Theorem that for number fields Borel’s regulator is twice Beilinson’s regulator.

K-theory, flat bundles and the Borel classes
Using Hausmann and Vogel's homology sphere bundle interpretation of algebraic K-theory, we construct K-theory invariants by a theory of characteristic classes for flat bundles. It is shown that the Borel classes are detected this way, as well as the rational K-theory of integer group rings of finite groups.
K-theory over C*-algebras
The contents of the article represents the minicourse which was delivered at the 7th conference "Geometry and Topology of Manifolds. The Mathematical Legacy of Charles Ehresmann", Będlewo (Poland), 8.05.2005 - 15.05.2005. The article includes the description of the so called Hirzebruch formula in different aspects which lead to a basic list of problems related to noncommutative geometry and topology. In conclusion, two new problems are presented: about almost flat bundles and about the Noether decomposition...
