We prove that if X is a separable, reflexive space which is asymptotic l_p, then X embeds into a reflexive space Z having an asymptotic l_p finite-dimensional decomposition. This result leads to an intrinsic characterization of subspaces of…

We prove a version of the countable union theorem for asymptotic dimension and we apply it to groups acting on asymptotically finite dimensional metric spaces. As a consequence we obtain the following finite dimensionality theorems. A) An…

We prove an asymptotic analog of the classical Hurewicz theorem on mappings which lower dimension. This theorem allows us to find sharp upper bound estimates for the asymptotic dimension of groups acting on finite dimensional metric spaces…

Suppose that a finitely generated group $G$ is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups $\{H_1, ..., H_m\} $. We prove that if each of the subgroups $H_1, ..., H_m$ has finite asymptotic dimension, then asymptotic dimension of $G$…

We introduce a quasi-symmetry invariant of a metric space Z called the capacity dimension. Our main result says that for a visual Gromov hyperbolic space X the asymptotic dimension of X is at most the capacity dimension of its boundary at…

It is relatively easy to construct a finitely generated group with infinite asymptotic dimension: the restricted wreath product of $\mathbb{Z}$ by $\mathbb{Z}$ provides an example. In light of this, it becomes interesting to consider the…

We show for a free action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on a finite-dimensional, compact metric space by homeomorphisms that the dynamic asymptotic dimension is either infinite or coincides with the asymptotic dimension of $\Gamma$.

By recognizing them as fundamental groups of developable complexes of groups we prove that mapping class groups of compact orientable surfaces have finite asymptotic dimension.

We prove that all hierarchically hyperbolic spaces have finite asymptotic dimension and obtain strong bounds on these dimensions. One application of this result is to obtain the sharpest known bound on the asymptotic dimension of the…

We develop some basic Lipschitz homotopy technique and apply it to manifolds with finite asymptotic dimension. In particular we show that the Higson compactification of a uniformly contractible manifold is mod $p$ acyclic in the finite…

In this note, we show that the asymptotic dimension of any building is finite and equal to the asymptotic dimension of an apartment in that building.

We show that the asymptotic dimension of a hyperbolic relatively hyperbolic graph is finite provided that this holds true uniformly for the peripheral subgraphs and for the electrifiation. We use this to show that the asymptotic dimension…

In this paper we prove that the asymptotic dimension of a finite-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex is bounded above by the dimension. To achieve this we prove a controlled colouring theorem for the complex. We also show that every CAT(0) cube…

We derive asymptotic estimates at infinity for positive harmonic functions in a large class of non-smooth unbounded domains. These include domains whose sections, after rescaling, resemble a Lipschitz cylinder or a Lipschitz cone, e.g.,…

We show that one relator groups viewed as metric spaces with respect to the word-length metric have finite asymptotic dimension in the sense of Gromov and give an estimate of their asymptotic dimension in terms of the relator length.

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…

It is proved that the assembly maps in algebraic K- and L-theory with respect to the family of finite subgroups is injective for groups with finite asymptotic dimension that admit a finite model for the classifying space for proper actions.…

We obtain two in a sense dual to each other results: First, that the capacity dimension of every compact, locally self-similar metric space coincides with the topological dimension, and second, that the asymptotic dimension of a metric…

We prove the dynamic asymptotic dimension of a free isometric action on a space of finite doubling dimension is either infinite or equal to the asymptotic dimension of the acting group; and give a full description of the dynamic asymptotic…
