Equivariant spectral triple for the quantum group $U_q(2)$ for complex deformation parameters

Let $q=|q|e^{iπθ},\,θ\in(-1,1],$ be a nonzero complex number such that $|q|\neq 1$ and consider the compact quantum group $U_q(2)$. For $θ\notin\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{0,1\}$, we obtain the $K$-theory of the $C^*$-algebra $C(U_q(2))$. We construct a spectral triple on $U_q(2)$ which is equivariant under its own comultiplication action. The spectral triple obtained here is even, $4^+$-summable, non-degenerate, and the Dirac operator acts on two copies of the $L^2$-space of $U_q(2)$. The $K$-homology class of the associated Fredholm module is shown to be nontrivial.
