On the Farrell-Jones and related Conjectures

Abstract

These extended notes are based on a series of six lectures presented at the summer school ``Cohomology of groups and algebraic $K$-theory'' which took place in Hangzhou, China from July 1 until July 12 in 2007. They give an introduction to the Farrell-Jones and the Baum-Connes Conjecture.
