Abstract

We introduce property (TSchur,G,K)(T_{Schur},G,K) and prove it for some non-cocompact lattice in Sp4Sp_4 in a local field of finite characteristic. We show that property (TSchur,G,K)(T_{Schur},G,K) for a non-cocompact lattice Γ\Gamma in a higher rank almost simple algebraic group in a local field is an obstacle to proving the Baum Connes conjecture without coefficient for Γ\Gamma with known methods, and this is stronger than the well-known fact that Γ\Gamma does not have the property of rapid decay (property (RD)). It is the first example (as announced in [Laf10a]) for which all known methods for proving the Baum Connes conjecture without coefficient fail.
