Abstract
An open question is whether the map in reduced -theory from the integral to the rational group ring is trivial for any group . We will show that this is false, with a counterexample given by the group . We will also show how to compute the image of the map using representation theoretic means, assuming satisfies the Farrell-Jones conjecture.
