Burghelea's conjecture on periodic cyclic homology of group algebras
Burghelea's conjecture on periodic cyclic homology of group algebras
Let be a discrete group, let be an Eilenberg–Mac Lane space, and let denote the conjugacy classes of elements of infinite order. For , write for the centralizer of , for the reduced centralizer, and let be the term in Burghelea's decomposition of the periodic cyclic homology of , fitting into the short exact sequence
Burghelea's conjecture. If has the homotopy type of a finite CW-complex, then
for all . Burghelea's formula expresses periodic cyclic homology in terms of these groups for infinite-order conjugacy classes; the conjecture asserts their vanishing under a finiteness hypothesis on , and the supplied source gives no resolution.
