The Mamma conjecture for the fundamental additive invariant

At least 17 years old · documented by

Let GG be a group and let RR be a commutative ring. A ring is regular when it is noetherian and has finite projective dimension. Let obreakEfund{ obreak\boldsymbol{\mathbf{E}}}^{\mathsf{fund}} denote the fundamental additive invariant on the orbit category of GG, and let VC{\mathcal V}C be the family of virtually cyclic subgroups of GG. The VC{\mathcal V}C-assembly property is the assembly property for this family.

Mamma conjecture. Given a group GG, the fundamental additive invariant Efund{\nobreak\boldsymbol{\mathbf{E}}}^{\mathsf{fund}} has the VC{\mathcal V}C-assembly property when the base ring RR is regular and the orders of all finite subgroups of GG are invertible in RR (for example, when RR is a regular Q\mathbb{Q}-algebra).

This is proposed as a common source of many isomorphism conjectures. The stated conditions remove the Bass–Heller–Swan obstruction that occurs for arbitrary rings, but the conjecture remains unproved in the supplied source.
