Subject: [dmd1@lehigh.edu (DONALD M. DAVIS)] new Hopf listings From: Mark Hovey Date: 10 Apr 1998 11:15:54 +0000 -------------- One new paper this time. Mark Hovey New papers uploaded to Hopf between 4/4/98 and 4/10/98: 1. http://hopf.math.purdue.edu/cgi-bin/generate?/pub/Lueck/luecktype0498 Title: ``The type of the classifying space for a family of subgroups'' Author: Wolfgang Lueck AMS-classification number: 55R35 Address: Wolfgang Lueck Fachbereich Mathematik und Informatik Westf\"alische Wilhelms-Universitaet Muenster Einsteinstr. 62 48149 M\"unster Germany email: lueck@math.uni-muenster.de Abstract: The classifying space E(G,F) for a family F of subgroups of a group G is defined up to G-homotopy as a G-CW-complex E(G,F) such that E(G,F)^H is contractible if H belongs to F and is empty otherwise. The space E(G,F) occurs in the Baum-Connes-Conjecture, The Isomorphism-Conjecture in algebraic K-theory and L-theory of Farrell and Jones and in the version of the Atiyah-Segal-Completion-Theorem for proper cocompact actions of discrete groups. We investigate the question whether there is a finite-dimensional G-CW-model, a finite G-CW-model or a G-CW-model of finite type for E(G,F) focusing on the case where F is the family FIN of finite subgroups. ---------------------Instructions----------------------------- To subscribe or unsubscribe to this list, send a message to Don Davis at dmd1@lehigh.edu with your e-mail address and name.

To get the papers listed above, point your WWW client (Mosaic, Netscape) to the URL listed. The general Hopf archive URL is http://hopf.math.purdue.edu There are links to conference announcements, Purdue seminars, and other math related things on this page as well. The general xxx archive URL is http://xxx.lanl.gov. More useful is the front end developed by Greg Kuperberg: http://front.math.ucdavis.edu You can also use ftp to hopf.math.purdue.edu, and login as ftp. Then cd to pub. Files are organized by author name, so papers by me are in pub/Hovey. If you want to download a file using ftp, you must type binary before you type get . To put a paper of yours on the archive, cd to /pub/incoming. Transfer the dvi file using binary, by first typing binary then put You should also transfer an abstract as well. Clarence has explicit instructions for the form of this abstract: see http://hopf.math.purdue.edu/pub/submissions.html. In particular, your abstract is meant to be read by humans, so should be as readable as possible. I reserve the right to edit unreadable abstracts. You should then e-mail Clarence at wilker@math.purdue.edu telling him what you have uploaded. For instructions on uploading papers to xxx, see http://front.math.ucdavis.edu I am solely responsible for these messages---don't send complaints about them to Clarence. Thanks to Clarence for creating and maintaining the archive. ------- End of forwarded message ------- ------- End of forwarded message -------
