The rough Baum–Connes conjecture for uniformly discrete metric spaces

Let YY be a proper and uniformly discrete metric space with coarsely bounded geometry. For each d0d\geq 0, let Pd(Y)P_d(Y) be the Rips complex of YY, and let Ku(Pd(Y))K_*^u(P_d(Y)) denote its uniform KK-homology. The uniform coarse assembly map is

μu ⁣:limdKu(Pd(Y))K(Cu(Y)).\mu_u \colon \lim_{d \to \infty} K_*^u(P_d(Y)) \to K_*(C_u^*(Y)).

Rough Baum–Connes conjecture. The map μu\mu_u is an isomorphism. This conjecture asserts that uniform KK-homology of the Rips complexes computes the KK-theory of the uniform Roe algebra, extending the coarse Baum–Connes paradigm to the rough setting. The supplied text does not give evidence of a resolution.
