Abstract

In this paper, we prove the K-theoretical and L-theoretical Farrell-Jones Conjecture with coefficients in an additive category for nearly crystallographic groups of the form QnZ\mathbb{Q}^n \rtimes \mathbb{Z}, where Z\mathbb{Z} acts on Qn\mathbb{Q}^n as an irreducible integer matrix with determinant dd, d>1|d |>1.
