We introduce and analyze the concept of an assembly map from the original homotopy theoretic point of view. We give also interpretations in terms of surgery theory, controlled topology and index theory. The motivation is that prominent conjectures of Farrell-Jones and Baum-Connes about K- and L-theory of group rings and group C^*-algebras predict that certain assembly maps are weak homotopy equivalences.

### A certain structure of Artin groups and the isomorphism conjecture

• S. Roushon
• Mathematics
• 2020
Abstract We observe an inductive structure in a large class of Artin groups of finite real, complex and affine types and exploit this information to deduce the Farrell–Jones isomorphism conjecture

### Universal spaces for proper actions play an important role in geometric group theory , equivariant homotopy theory , and the Baum – Connes and Farrell – Jones Conjectures

We formalize an equivariant version of Bestvina–Brady discrete Morse theory, and apply it to Vietoris–Rips complexes in order to exhibit finite universal spaces for proper actions for all

• Mathematics
• 2021
Loday’s assembly maps approximate the K-theory of group rings by the K-theory of the coefﬁcient ring and the corresponding homology of the group. We present a generalization that places both

• Mathematics
• 2019
We associate to every $G$-bornological coarse space $X$ and every left-exact $\infty$-category with $G$-action a left-exact infinity-category of equivariant $X$-controlled objects. Postcomposing with

. In [19] we studied a Fadell-Neuwirth type ﬁbration theorem for orbifolds, and gave a short exact sequence of fundamental groups of conﬁguration Lie groupoids of Lie groupoids corresponding to the

Summary: We propose two deﬁnitions of conﬁguration Lie groupoids and in both the cases we prove a Fadell-Neuwirth type ﬁbration theorem for a class of Lie groupoids. We show that this is the best
