Equivariant vector bundles over classifying spaces for proper actions

Equivariant vector bundles over classifying spaces for proper actions
Equivariant vector bundles over classifying spaces for proper actions
We give the first examples of discrete groups G for which there exist compatible collections of representations over the finite subgroups of G that do not come from any G-equivariant (virtual) vector bundle on the classifying space for proper actions of G. This implies that the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence for computing the equivariant topological K-theory of the classifying space for proper actions of G has non-zero differentials. We show that this cannot happen for right-angled Coxeter groups, and we compute K-theory for these groups.

Abstract

We give the first examples of discrete groups G for which there exist compatible collections of representations over the finite subgroups of G that do not come from any G-equivariant (virtual) vector bundle on the classifying space for proper actions of G. This implies that the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence for computing the equivariant topological K-theory of the classifying space for proper actions of G has non-zero differentials. We show that this cannot happen for right-angled Coxeter groups, and we compute K-theory for these groups.
