Decomposition theorems for asymptotic property C and property A. (English) Zbl 1416.54015

The authors define a coarse geometric property of metric spaces they call “finite APC-decomposition complexity”. This property interpolates between two properties “finite decomposition complexity” and “asymptotic property C” that are of great interest in coarse geometry. A space satisfying either of these two properties also has finite APC-decomposition complexity. On the other hand, the authors show that finite APC-decomposition complexity implies another well-known “property A”. The main theorem is about closure properties of the class of spaces with finite APC-decomposition complexity. For example, it is closed under direct products of spaces among other constructions. These results are of particular interest when applied to finitely generated groups with word metrics. In this situation there are also closure properties under some group-theoretic constructions such as amalgamated products and extensions.
