Bredon cohomological dimensions for groups acting on CAT(0)-spaces
Let G be a group acting isometrically with discrete orbits on a separable complete CAT(0)-space of bounded topological dimension. Under certain conditions, we give upper bounds for the Bredon…
Geometric dimension of groups for the family of virtually cyclic subgroups
By studying commensurators of virtually cyclic groups, we prove that every elementary amenable group of finite Hirsch length h and cardinality ℵn admits a finite‐dimensional classifying space with…
Bredon cohomology and its applications to hierarchically defined groups B
By considering the Bredon analogue of complete cohomology of a group, we show that every group in the class LHFF of type Bredon-FP∞ admits a finite dimensional model for EFG. We also show that…
Hierarchically cocompact classifying spaces for mapping class groups of surfaces
We define the notion of a hierarchically cocompact classifying space for a family of subgroups of a group. Our main application is to show that the mapping class group Mod (S) of any connected…
Complete Bredon cohomology and its applications to hierarchically defined groups
Abstract By considering the Bredon analogue of complete cohomology of a group, we show that every group in the class $\cll\clh^{\mathfrak F}{\mathfrak F}$ of type Bredon-FP∞ admits a finite…
Algebraic K-theory of virtually free groups
We provide a general procedure for computing the algebraic K-theory of finitely generated virtually free groups. The procedure describes these groups in terms of the algebraic K-theory of various…
On the classifying space for the family of virtually cyclic subgroups for elementary amenable groups
We show that elementary amenable groups, which have a bound on the orders of their finite subgroups, admit a finite dimensional model for the classifying space with virtually cyclic isotropy.

Survey on Classifying Spaces for Families of Subgroups
