Understanding the problem

Read the background

A finitely generated torsion-free group has an infinite-order degree-zero K-homology class in the kernel of the coefficient-free reduced Baum–Connes assembly map.

Why it matters

If correct, disproves rational injectivity of the coefficient-free reduced Baum–Connes map for torsion-free groups.

What counts as progress

Can reduced Baum–Connes assembly fail rational injectivity for a torsion-free group?
