Weinberger–Yu's finite K-theory conjecture for group C*-algebras
Let be a countable discrete group. For each nontrivial finite-order element of order , let
Let be the subgroup of generated by the classes . For nontrivial elements of distinct finite orders, let be the subgroup generated by . Let be the universal space for proper and free -actions.
Weinberger–Yu's conjecture. The group has rank , and every nonzero element of it lies outside the image of the assembly map
The conjecture predicts independent finite-order classes in maximal group C*-algebra K-theory and their detection outside the assembly-map image. Its status is not resolved in the supplied source.
