The Atiyah-Bott-Shapiro isomorphism (due to Atiyah-Bott-Shapiro 63) is an isomorphism between the real/complex topological K-theory ring of the point in degree and the quotient of Clifford modules of rank by those that have an extension to Clifford modules of rank .
The generalization of this to Clifford module bundles is the content of Karoubi K-theory.
