The Farrell-Hsiang method revisited

Abstract

We present a sufficient condition for groups to satisfy the Farrell-Jones Conjecture in algebraic K-theory and L-theory. The condition is formulated in terms of finite quotients of the group in question and is motivated by work of Farrell-Hsiang.

This version is different from the published version. A number of typos and an incorrect formula for the transfer before Lemma 6.3 pointed out by Holger Reich have been corrected
