Abstract

Ghostly ideals are among the most mysterious objects in coarse index theory. In this paper, we show that if a metric space XX with bounded geometry admits a coarse embedding into an p\ell^p-space (1p<1 \le p < \infty), then the canonical inclusion from any geometric ideal to the corresponding ghostly ideal induces an isomorphism in KK-theory. As consequences, we deduce that such spaces satisfy the relative coarse Baum-Connes conjectures, as well as the operator norm localization property for finite rank projections (ONLPFinONL_{\mathcal P_{Fin}}).
