Atiyah's integrality conjecture for -Betti numbers
Atiyah's integrality conjecture for -Betti numbers
Let be a finite connected CW-complex with fundamental group . If is torsion-free, then its -th -Betti number is an integer.
Atiyah's integrality conjecture.
The conjecture is known for certain classes of torsion-free groups, but remains open in general. It motivates the question of when the analogous -adic Betti numbers are integral.
