The aim of this talk is to describe the topological $K$-ring, in terms of generators and relations of a Springer variety $\mathcal{F}_{\lambda}$ of type $A$ associated to a nilpotentÌýoperator having Jordan canonical form whose block sizes is a weaklyÌýdecreasing sequence $\lambda=(\lambda_1,\ldots, \lambda_l)$.ÌýThisÌýparallels the description of the integral cohomology ring ofÌý$\mathcal{F}_{\lambda}$ due to Tanisaki and also the equivariantÌýanalogue due to Abe and Horiguchi.

This talk is based on aÌýjoint work with Parameswaran Sankaran.
