Lück–Sauer–Wegner conjecture on measure-equivalent groups and L2-torsion

About 13 years old · traced to

Let Γ\Gamma and Λ\Lambda be det-L2L^2-acyclic groups, meaning that their L2L^2-torsion is defined. Assume that Γ\Gamma and Λ\Lambda are measure equivalent of index cc.

Lück–Sauer–Wegner conjecture. Their L2L^2-torsions satisfy

ρ(2)(Γ)=c⋅ρ(2)(Λ).\rho^{(2)}(\Gamma)=c\cdot\rho^{(2)}(\Lambda).

This conjecture proposes that L2L^2-torsion transforms by the measure-equivalence index, in analogy with the scaling formula for L2L^2-Betti numbers. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been resolved.
