Abstract

We show that cyclic cohomology of an algebraA is obtained from traces with suitable domains on the algebraqA of the second author. WhenA is aC* algebra so isqA and the notion of positive trace makes sense. We hence get a notion of positivity for cyclic cocycles. We prove that a positive trace onqA defines a type I or II Fredholm module onA.
