In this paper, we consider spaces whose Higson coronae are indecomposable continua. We show that for a non-compact proper metric space $X$ which is coarsely geodesic and has coarse bounded geometry, the Higson corona of $X$ is an…

In this paper, we characterise metric spaces which have topologically connected Higson coronas. The characterisation is given by a natural categorical condition applied in the coarse category. We also give a characterisation in terms of…

This paper discusses properties of the Higson corona by means of a quotient on coarse ultrafilters on a proper metric space. We use this description to show that the corona functor is faithful. This study provides a K\"unneth formula for…

We construct a corona of a relatively hyperbolic group by blowing-up all parabolic points of its Bowditch boundary. We relate the $K$-homology of the corona with the $K$-theory of the Roe algebra, via the coarse assembly map. We also…

The $K$-theory of the stable Higson corona of a coarse space carries a canonical ring structure. This ring is the domain of an unreduced version of the coarse co-assembly map of Emerson and Meyer. We show that the target also carries a ring…

In this paper, we study the topological properties of the subpower Higson corona of proper metric spaces and show that the subpower Higson corona of the half open interval with the usual metric is an indecomposable continuum. Some…

Let $\mathbf{TB}$ be the category of totally bounded, locally compact metric spaces with the $C_0$ coarse structures. We show that if $X$ and $Y$ are in $\mathbf{TB}$ then $X$ and $Y$ are coarsely equivalent if and only if their Higson…

For any compact Hausdorff space $K$ we construct a canonical finitary coarse structure $\mathcal E_{X,K}$ on the set $X$ of isolated points of $K$. This construction has two properties: $\bullet$ If a finitary coarse space $(X,\mathcal E)$…

We show that under mild set theoretic hypotheses we have rigidity for algebras of continuous functions over Higson coronas, topological spaces arising in coarse geometry. In particular, we show that under $\mathsf{OCA}$ and $\mathsf…

The subpower Higson corona of a proper metric space is defined in \cite{KZ}. We prove that, unlikely to the Higson corona, the closure of a $\sigma$-compact subset of the subpower Higson corona of a proper unbounded metric space does not…

This paper is devoted to introducing coarse structures in a very simple way, namely as an equivalence relation on the set of simple ends. As an application we show that Gromov boundary of every hyperbolic space is an example of a Higson…

Let $G$ be an infinite group, $\kappa$ be an infinite cardinal, $\kappa\leq \mid G\mid$ and let $\mathcal{E}_{\kappa}$ denotes a coarse structure on $G$ with the base $\{\{ (x,y): y\in F x F\}: F\in [G]^{<\kappa}\}$. We prove that if either…

We study the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture for product spaces and product groups. We show that a product of CAT(0) groups, polycyclic groups and relatively hyperbolic groups which satisfy some assumptions on peripheral subgroups, satisfies…

A uniform Roe corona is the quotient of the uniform Roe algebra of a metric space by the ideal of compact operators. Among other results, we show that it is consistent with ZFC that isomorphism between uniform Roe coronas implies coarse…

A certain Grothendieck topology assigned to a metric space gives rise to a sheaf cohomology theory which sees the coarse structure of the space. Already constant coefficients produce interesting cohomology groups. In degree 0 they see the…

In a previous work arXiv:physics/0611108v2, it was shown that the volume spanned by a molecular system in its conformational space can be effectively bounded by a polyhedral cone, this cone is described by means of a simple combinatorial…

In 2007 Phillips and Weaver showed that, assuming the Continuum Hypothesis, there exists an outer automorphism of the Calkin algebra. (The Calkin algebra is the algebra of bounded operators on a separable complex Hilbert space, modulo the…

We formulate and study a new coarse (co-)assembly map. It involves a modification of the Higson corona construction and produces a map dual in an appropriate sense to the standard coarse assembly map. The new assembly map is shown to be an…

A group is coherent if all its finitely generated subgroups are finitely presented. In this article we provide a criterion for positively determining the coherence of a group. This criterion is based upon the notion of the perimeter of a…

We study metric spaces that admit a conical bicombing and thus obey a weak form of non-positive curvature. Prime examples of such spaces are injective metric spaces. In this article we give a complete characterization of complete metric…
