We use controlled topology applied to the action of the infinite dihedral group on a partially compactified plane and deduce two consequences for algebraic K-theory. The first is that the family in the K-theoretic Farrell-Jones conjecture…

We introduce a new notion of regularity for rings and exact categories and we show important results in algebraic K-theory. In particular we prove a strong vanishing theorem for Nil groups and give an explicit class of groups, much bigger…

In this paper, we extend Waldhausen's results on algebraic K-theory of generalized free produts in a more general setting and we give some properties of the Nil functors. As a consequence, we get new groups with trivial Whitehead groups.

Let A a regular F_p-algebra. The relative K-groups K_q(A[x]/(x^m),(x)) and the Nil-groups Nil_q(A[x]/(x^m)) were evaluated earlier by the author and Madsen in terms of the big de Rham-Witt groups of the ring A. In this paper, we evaluate…

We study Farrell Nil-groups associated to a finite order automorphism of a ring $R$. We show that any such Farrell Nil-group is either trivial, or infinitely generated (as an abelian group). Building on this first result, we then show that…

This article will explore the K- and L-theory of group rings and their applications to algebra, geometry and topology. The Farrell-Jones Conjecture characterizes K- and L-theory groups. It has many implications, including the Borel and…

In this article, we study higher Nil $K$-groups via binary complexes. More particularly, we exhibit an explicit form of generators of higher Nil $K$-groups in terms of binary complexes.

We extend the notion of regular coherence from rings to additive categories and show that well-known consequences of regular coherence for rings also apply to additive categories. For instance the negative K-groups and all twisted…

We compute the K-theory of ring C*-algebras for polynomial rings over finite fields. The key ingredient is a duality theorem which we had obtained in a previous paper. It allows us to show that the K-theory of these algebras has a ring…

The "fundamental theorem" for algebraic $K$-theory expresses the $K$-groups of a Laurent polynomial ring $L[t,t^{-1}]$ as a direct sum of two copies of the $K$-groups of $L$ (with a degree shift in one copy), and certain "nil" groups of…

We prove that the Waldhausen nilpotent class group of an injective index 2 amalgamated free product is isomorphic to the Farrell-Bass nilpotent class group of a twisted polynomial extension. As an application, we show that the Farrell-Jones…

We study the behavior of the Nil-subgroups of K-groups under localization. As a consequence we obtain that the relative assembly map from the family of finite subgroups to the family of virtually cyclic subgroups is rationally an…

In this paper, we use trace methods to study the algebraic $K$-theory of rings of the form $R[x_1,\ldots, x_d]/(x_1,\ldots, x_d)^2$. We compute the relative $p$-adic $K$ groups for $R$ a perfectoid ring. In particular, we get the integral…

We provide descriptions of the Whitehead groups, and the algebraic $K$-theory groups, of the fundamental group of a connected, oriented, closed $3$-manifold in terms of Whitehead groups of their finite subgroups and certain Nil-groups. The…

We prove that the relative K-groups associated with a nilpotent extension of Z/p^N Z-algebras and the bi-relative K-groups associated with a Milnor square of Z/p^N Z-algebras are p-primary torsion groups of bounded exponent. We also show…

This is a survey on the Farrell-Jones Conjecture about the algebraic K- and L-theory of groups rings and its applications to algebra, geometry, group theory, and topology.

We develop a finiteness notion for unbounded chain complexes over a commutative noetherian integral domain $R$ employing the Abel summation method. The algebraic K-theory of such complexes is defined, and shown to be non-trivial. We also…

In this paper, we study the K-theory on higher modules in spectral algebraic geometry. We relate the K-theory of an $\infty$-category of finitely generated projective modules on certain $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-rings with the K-theory of an…

Dunkl operators for complex reflection groups are defined in this paper. These commuting operators give rise to a parametrized family of deformations of the polynomial De Rham complex. This leads to the study of the polynomial ring as a…

We describe the K-ring of the classifying space of the dihedral group in terms of generators and the minimal set of relations by emphasising the connection with the polynomials arising in the KO-rings of lens spaces and demonstrating the…
