Codimension 1 transfer maps of K theoretic indexes

Let $M$ be a closed spin manifold and $N$ be a codimension 1 submanifold of it. Given certain homotopy conditions, Zeidler shows that the Rosenberg index of $N$ is an obstruction to the existence of positive scalar curvature on $M$. He further gives a transfer map between the K groups of the group $C^{\ast }$ algebras of the foundemental group. The transfer map maps the Rosenberg index of $M$ to the one of $N$. In this note, we present an alternative formulation of the transfer map using maps between $C^{\ast }$ algebras, and give an analogus result for the codimension 1 transfer of higher K theoretic signatures.
