On Asymptotic Assouad-Nagata Dimension

Abstract

For a large class of metric space X including discrete groups we prove that the asymptotic Assouad-Nagata dimension AN-asdim X of X coincides with the covering dimension $\dim ({\nu }_{L}X)$ of the Higson corona of X with respect to the sublinear coarse structure on X. Then we apply this fact to prove the equality AN-asdim(X x R) = AN-asdim X + 1. We note that the similar equality for Gromov's asymptotic dimension asdim generally fails to hold [Dr3]. Additionally we construct an injective map from the asymptotic cone without the basepoint to the sublinear Higson Corona.
