From Acyclic Groups to the Bass Conjecture for Amenable Groups
We prove that the Bost Conjecture on the `-assembly map for countable discrete groups implies the Bass Conjecture. It follows that all amenable groups satisfy the Bass Conjecture.
متن کاملTHE WHITEHEAD CONJECTURE AND SPLITTING B(Zj2)
• Z(3) ^ L(2) ^ L(iy^ L(0) > HZ, localized at 2, is exact on homotopy groups. Here HZ is the integral EilenbergMac Lane spectrum, Z(0) = S°, and L(k) = X-SPS°/SP~S°. Since Z,(l) = RP°° [JTTW], exactness at Z,(0) is equivalent to the Kahn-Priddy theorem [KP]. In establishing this geometric resolution, it was found necessary to show that L(k) is projective in an appropriate sense. Regarding suspe...
متن کاملWhitehead Groups of Finite Groups
In 1966, Milnor surveyed in this Bulletin [23] the concept of Whitehead torsion, focusing on the definition, topological significance and computation of Whitehead groups and their relationship to algebraic ^-theory and the congruence subgroup problem. As Milnor showed in that survey [23, Appendix 1], an affirmative solution to the congruence subgroup problem for algebraic number fields would im...
متن کاملTest Groups for Whitehead Groups
We consider the question of when the dual of a Whitehead group is a test group for Whitehead groups. This turns out to be equivalent to the question of when the tensor product of two Whitehead groups is Whitehead. We investigate what happens in different models of set theory.
متن کاملBorel Whitehead Groups
We investigate the Whiteheadness of Borel abelian groups (א1-free, without loss of generality as otherwise this is trivial). We show that CH (and even WCH) implies any such abelian group is free, and always א2-free. 1998 Mathematics Subject Classification 03C60, 03E15, 20K20.
