By considering the Bredon analogue of complete cohomology of a group, we show that every group in the class $\LHFF$ of type Bredon-$\FP_\infty$ admits a finite dimensional model for $\EFG$. We also show that abelian-by-infinite cyclic…

We study actions of discrete groups on contractible topological spaces in which either (1) all stabilizers lie in the family of subgroups of prime power order or (2) all stabilizers lie in the family of finite subgroups. We compare the…

We compare three definitions of the equivariant cohomological dimension of a group with operators, coming from Takasu, Adamson and Bredon relative group cohomologies, giving examples of strict inequality in all cases where it can occur. We…

We define the orbit category for transitive topological groupoids and their equivariant CW-complexes. By using these constructions we define equivariant Bredon homology and cohomology for actions of transitive topological groupoids. We show…

For Artin groups of dihedral type, we compute the Bredon homology groups of the classifying space for the family of virtually cyclic subgroups with coefficients in the K-theory of a group ring.

We show that, if g is more than or equal to 2, the virtual cohomological dimension of the mapping class group of a 3-dimensional handlebody of genus g is equal to 4g-5 and the Euler number of it is equal to 0.

Bounded-cohomological dimension of groups is a relative of classical cohomological dimension, defined in terms of bounded cohomology with trivial coefficients instead of ordinary group cohomology. We will discuss constructions that lead to…

We show that bounded cohomology stabilizes along sequences of classical Lie groups, and along sequences of lattices in them. Our method is based on a criterion from (arXiv:2307.12808) which adapts Quillen's stability method to the setting…

We introduce a bounded version of Bredon cohomology for groups relative to a family of subgroups. Our theory generalizes bounded cohomology and differs from Mineyev--Yaman's relative bounded cohomology for pairs. We obtain cohomological…

For a discrete group $\Gamma$ satisfying some finiteness conditions we give a Bredon projective resolution of the trivial module in terms of projective covers of the chain complex associated to certain posets of subgroups. We use this to…

We study the $RO(G)$-graded Bredon cohomology of a point in the case where $G$ is a cyclic group of odd order, expanding on the information provided by previous studies. Our methods center on the purely algebraic aspects of this matter,…
