The K-theoretic Farrell–Jones conjecture for hyperbolic groups

Abstract: We prove the Farrell-Jones Isomorphism Conjecture for groups acting properly discontinuously via isometries on (real) hyperbolic n-space H n with finite volume orbit space. We then apply this result to show that, for any Bianchi group Γ, W h(Γ), ˜ K 0 (ZΓ), and K i (ZΓ) vanish for i ≤ −1.

“…Proof. We will use induction on n. For n = 0, H (0) = F 2 , for which the fibered isomorphism conjecture holds ( [3]). For n = 1, the result in Proposition 3.1.…”

“…Conjecture 3.5, even in its much stronger integral version that we are not discussing here, is known to be true for all Gromov hyperbolic groups [BLR08] and all CAT(0)-groups [BL12,Weg12], for example. Theorem 1.3 and Corollary 1.5 have the following immediate consequence.…”

“…Conjecture 3.1 is known to be true for all Gromov hyperbolic groups [BLR08] and all CAT(0)-groups [BL12], for example. One of the most interesting open cases of Conjecture 3.1 is Thompson's group F : is Wh(F ) = 0?…”
