The aim of this paper is to investigate properties preserved and co-preserved by coarsely $n$-to-1 functions, in particular by the quotient maps $X\to X/\sim$ induced by a finite group $G$ acting by isometries on a metric space $X$. The…
We combine aspects of the notions of finite decomposition complexity and asymptotic property C into a notion that we call finite APC-decomposition complexity. Any space with finite decomposition complexity has finite APC-decomposition…
We show that coarse property C is preserved by finite coarse direct products. We also show that the coarse analog of Dydak's countable asymptotic dimension is equivalent to the coarse version of straight finite decomposition complexity and…
Property A introduced by Guoliang Yu is an amenability-type property for metric spaces. In this article, we study property A for uniformly locally finite coarse spaces. Main examples of coarse spaces are a metric space, a set equipped with…
We formalize the concept of a family of metric spaces satisfying a coarse property uniformly and we generalize finite decomposition complexity of Erik Guentner, Romain Tessera, and Guoliang Yu. Of particular interest are results determining…
John Roe \cite{Roe lectures} introduced coarse structures for arbitrary sets $X$ by considering subsets of $X\times X$. That definition, while natural for analysts, is a bit more difficult to digest for topologists and geometers. In this…
We define a notion of free product for coarse spaces that generalizes the corresponding notion of a free product for groups. We show that free products preserve coarse properties such as coarse property C, finite coarse decomposition…
We introduce properties of metric spaces and, specifically, finitely generated groups with word metrics which we call coarse coherence and coarse regular coherence. They are geometric counterparts of the classical algebraic notion of…
Following Roe and others (see, e.g., [MR1451755]), we (re)develop coarse geometry from the foundations, taking a categorical point of view. In this paper, we concentrate on the discrete case in which topology plays no role. Our theory is…
Gromov \cite{Gr$_1$} and Dranishnikov \cite{Dr$_1$} introduced asymptotic and coarse dimensions of proper metric spaces via quite different ways. We define coarse and asymptotic dimension of all metric spaces in a unified manner and we…
This paper is devoted to dualization of paracompactness to the coarse category via the concept of $R$-disjointness. Property A of G.Yu can be seen as a coarse variant of amenability via partitions of unity and leads to a dualization of…
Coarse geometry, the branch of topology that studies the global properties of spaces, was originally developed for metric spaces and then Roe introduced coarse structures as a large-scale counterpart of uniformities. In the literature,…
We introduce an alternative description of coarse proximities. We define a coarse normality condition for connected coarse spaces and show that this definition agrees with large scale normality defined in [3] and asymptotic normality…
In this paper we define the coarse (co)homology of the complement of a subspace in a metric space, generalizing the coarse (co)homology of Roe. We give a model space which encodes coarse geometric structure of the complement. We also…
Geometric property (T) was defined by Willett and Yu, first for sequences of graphs and later for more general discrete spaces. Increasing sequences of graphs with geometric property (T) are expanders, and they are examples of coarse spaces…
We introduce the notion of controlled products on metric spaces as a generalization of Gromov products, and construct boundaries by using controlled products, which we call the Gromov boundaries. It is shown that the Gromov boundary with…
We prove extension theorems for several geometric properties such as asymptotic property C (APC), finite decomposition complexity (FDC), strict finite decomposition complexity (sFDC) which are weakenings of Gromov's finite asymptotic…
We introduce the notion of asymptotic cohomology based on the bounded cohomology and define cohomological asymptotic dimension $\as_{\Z} X$ of metric spaces. We show that it agrees with the asymptotic dimension $\as X$ when the later is…
Coarse geometry studies metric spaces on the large scale. The recently introduced notion of coarse entropy is a tool to study dynamics from the coarse point of view. We prove that all isometries of a given metric space have the same coarse…
Finite decomposition complexity and asymptotic dimension growth are two generalizations of M. Gromov's asymptotic dimension which can be used to prove property A for large classes of finitely generated groups of infinite asymptotic…
