Several features of an analytic (infinite-dimensional) Grassmannian of
(commensurable) subspaces of a Hilbert space were developed in the context of
integrable PDEs (KP hierarchy). We extended some of those features when
polarized separable Hilbert spaces are generalized to a class of polarized
Hilbert modules, in particular the Baker and tau-functions, which become
operator-valued. Following from Part I we produce a pre-determinant structure
for a class of tau-functions defined in the setting of the similarity class of
projections of a certain Banach *-algebra.
We present an operator-coefficient version of Sato's infinite-dimensional
Grassmann manifold, and tau-function. In this context, the Burchnall-Chaundy
ring of commuting differential operators becomes a C*-algebra, to which we
apply the Brown-Douglas-Fillmore theory, and topological invariants of the
spectral ring become readily available. We construct KK classes of the spectral
curve of the ring and, motivated by the fact that all isospectral
Burchnall-Chaundy rings make up the Jacobian of the curve, we compare the
(degree-1) K-homology of the curve with that of its Jacobian.
