Classifying spaces for proper actions of locally finite groups

Classifying spaces for proper actions of locally finite groups
Classifying spaces for proper actions of locally finite groups
For each finite ordinal n and each locally-finite group G of cardinality aleph n, we construct an (n+1)-dimensional model for the classifying space for proper G-actions. We use this complex to obtain information about the cohomology of G with free coefficients. Our techniques also give information about the location of large free abelian groups within Kropholler's hierarchy.

Abstract

For each finite ordinal n and each locally-finite group G of cardinality aleph n, we construct an (n+1)-dimensional model for the classifying space for proper G-actions. We use this complex to obtain information about the cohomology of G with free coefficients. Our techniques also give information about the location of large free abelian groups within Kropholler's hierarchy.
