We define and compare two bivariant generalizations of the topological $K$-group $K^\top(G)$ for a topological group $G$. We consider the Baum-Connes conjecture in this context and study its relation to the usual Baum-Connes conjecture.

For relatively hyperbolic groups, we investigate conditions guaranteeing that the subgroup generated by two quasiconvex subgroups $Q$ and $R$ is quasiconvex and isomorphic to $Q \ast_{Q\cap R} R$. Our results generalized known combination…

In this paper we give new requirements that a tree of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces has to satisfy in order to be $\delta$-hyperbolic itself. As an application, we give a simple proof that limit groups are relatively hyperbolic.

In this note, we exhibit a method to prove the Baum-Connes conjecture (with coefficients) for extensions with finite quotients of certain groups which already satisfy the Baum-Connes conjecture. Interesting examples to which this method…

We present an alternative approach to the result of Guentner, Higson, and Weinberger concerning the Baum-Connes conjecture for finitely generated subgroups of SL(2,C). Using finite-dimensional methods, we show that the Baum-Connes assembly…

The 1973 Boone-Higman conjecture predicts that every finitely generated group with solvable word problem embeds in a finitely presented simple group. In this paper, we show that hyperbolic groups satisfy this conjecture, that is, each…

In this article, we prove a combination theorem for a complex of relatively hyperbolic groups. It is a generalization of Martin's \cite{martin} work for combination of hyperbolic groups over a finite $M_K$-simplicial complex, where $k\leq…

We show that the mapping torus of a hyperbolic group by a hyperbolic automorphism is cubulable. Along the way, we (i) give an alternate proof of Hagen and Wise's theorem that hyperbolic free-by-cyclic groups are cubulable, and (ii) extend…

The Boone--Higman conjecture is that every recursively presented group with solvable word problem embeds in a finitely presented simple group. We discuss a brief history of this conjecture and work towards it. Along the way we describe some…

We define relatively quasiconvex subgroups of relatively hyperbolic groups in the sense of Osin and show that such subgroups have expected properties. Also we state several definitions equivalent to the definition of relatively hyperbolic…

This note provides a counterexample showing that the assumptions that Chabert and Echterhoff have imposed in their permanence property of the Baum-Connes conjecture for group extensions cannot be simplified.
