The Strong Bass conjecture
Let be a group, let be the Hattori–Stallings trace map, and write the image of a finitely generated projective module as
Here is the coefficient associated to the conjugacy class of . Strong Bass conjecture. The function is for . This conjecture concerns the vanishing of nonidentity contributions to the Hattori–Stallings trace. It follows from the stronger claim that the reduced map from to vanishes rationally; the latter is known when satisfies the Farrell–Jones conjecture, but the general case remains open.
