Abstract

Let NN be a complete affine manifold An/ΓA^n/\Gamma of dimension nn where Γ\Gamma is an affine transformation group and K(Γ,1)K(\Gamma, 1) is realized as a finite CW-complex. NN has a partially hyperbolic holonomy group if the tangent bundle pulled over the unit tangent bundle over a sufficiently large compact part splits into expanding, neutral, and contracting subbundles along the geodesic flow. We show that if the holonomy group is partially hyperbolic of index kk, k<n/2k < n/2, then cd(Γ)nk\mathrm{cd}(\Gamma) \leq n-k. Moreover, if a finitely-presented affine group Γ\Gamma acts on AnA^n properly discontinuously and freely with the kk-Anosov linear group for kn/2k \leq n/2, then cd(Γ)nk\mathrm{cd}(\Gamma) \leq n-k. Also, there exists a compact collection of nkn-k-dimensional affine subspaces where Γ\Gamma acts on. The techniques here are mostly from coarse geometry.
