The vision for precision medicine is to use individual patient characteristics to inform a personalized treatment plan that leads to the best healthcare possible for each patient. Mobile technologies have an important role to play in this vision as they offer a means to monitor a patient's health status in real-time an…

Study semi-coarse spaces' homotopy and homology, extending coarse geometry.

We define a notion of free product for coarse spaces that generalizes the corresponding notion of a free product for groups. We show that free products preserve coarse properties such as coarse property C, finite coarse decomposition complexity, and coarse property A. We also give an upper bound estimate on the dimensi…

Defines coarse cohomology of space complements, proving new duality results.

For every strong coarse homology theory we construct a coarse assembly map as a natural transformation between coarse homology theories. We provide various conditions implying that this assembly map is an equivalence. These results generalize known results for the analytic coarse assembly map for K-homology to general …

In this article, we introduce the notion of a functor on coarse spaces being coarsely excisive- a coarse analogue of the notion of a functor on topological spaces being excisive. Further, taking cones, a coarsely excisive functor yields a topologically excisive functor, and for coarse topological spaces there is an ass…

We introduce large scale analogues of topological monotone and light maps, which we call coarsely monotone and coarsely light maps respectively. We show that these two classes of maps constitute a factorization system on the coarse category. We also show how coarsely monotone maps arise from a reflection in a similar w…

Interprets coarse symbol and index classes for Callias type operators.

The coarse category was established by Roe to distill the salient features of the large-scale approach to metric spaces and groups that was started by Gromov. In this paper, we use the language of coarse spaces to define coarse versions of asymptotic property C and decomposition complexity. We prove that coarse propert…

We show that coarse property C is preserved by finite coarse direct products. We also show that the coarse analog of Dydak's countable asymptotic dimension is equivalent to the coarse version of straight finite decomposition complexity and is therefore preserved by direct products.

In this note on coarse geometry we revisit coarse homotopy. We prove that coarse homotopy indeed is an equivalence relation, and this in the most general context of abstract coarse structures. We introduce (in a geometric way) coarse homotopy groups. The main result is that the coarse homotopy groups of cone of a compa…

We introduce a new variant of the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture designed to tackle coarsely disconnected metric spaces called the boundary coarse Baum-Connes conjecture. We prove this conjecture for many coarsely disconnected spaces that are known to be counterexamples to the coarse Baum-Connes conjecture. In particula…

New concept of coarse medians for higher rank symmetric spaces.

We introduce a notion of fibred coarse embedding into Hilbert space for metric spaces, which is a generalization of Gromov's notion of coarse embedding into Hilbert space. It turns out that a large class of expander graphs admit such an embedding. We show that the maximal coarse Baum-Connes conjecture holds for metric …

The study explores ends in coarse homotopy of proper geodesic spaces.

Following Roe and others (see, e.g., [MR1451755]), we (re)develop coarse geometry from the foundations, taking a categorical point of view. In this paper, we concentrate on the discrete case in which topology plays no role. Our theory is particularly suited to the development of the_Roe (C*-)algebras_ C*(X) and their K…

Classifies homeomorphism groups of countable Stone spaces up to coarse equivalence.

The paper studies properties of group relations induced by compatible coarse structures.

We investigate the coarse homology of leaves in foliations of compact manifolds. This is motivated by the observation that the non-leaves constructed by Schweitzer and by Zeghib all have non-finitely generated coarse homology. This led us to ask whether the coarse homology of leaves in a compact manifold always has to …

Unique median structures found in hyperbolic spaces.

Coarse homotopy theory connects Euclidean cones to shape theory of compact spaces.

This paper extends boundary embedding results to coarsely convex spaces.

The paper shows how coarse embeddings affect homological Dehn functions.

Coarse geometry, and in particular coarse homotopy theory, has proven to be a powerful tool for approaching problems in geometric group theory and higher index theory. In this paper, we continue to develop theory in this area by proving a Coarse Lifting Lemma with respect to a certain class of bornologous surjective ma…

We construct the coarse index class with support condition (as an element of coarse $K$-homology) of an equivariant Dirac operator on a complete Riemannian manifold endowed with a proper, isometric action of a group. We further show a coarse relative index theorem and discuss the compatibility of the index with the sus…

Generalizes Bestvina's $\mathcal{Z}$-boundaries to coarse $\mathcal{Z}$-boundaries.

Recent research in coarse geometry revealed similarities between certain concepts of analysis, large scale geometry, and topology. Property A of G.Yu is the coarse analog of amenability for groups and its generalization (exact spaces) was later strengthened to be the large scale analog of paracompact spaces using parti…

We investigate the fixed point property of the group actions on a coarse space and its Higson corona. We deduce the coarse version of Brouwer's fixed point theorem.

Groups with specific properties have similar cubulations and coarse median structures.

The paper characterizes arithmetic metrics in coarsely geometric settings.

Constraint-based causal discovery from limited data is a notoriously difficult challenge due to the many borderline independence test decisions. Several approaches to improve the reliability of the predictions by exploiting redundancy in the independence information have been proposed recently. Though promising, existi…

We study the concept of coarse disjointness and large scale $n$-to-$1$ functions. As a byproduct, we obtain an Ostrand-type characterization of asymptotic dimension for coarse structures. It is shown that properties like finite asymptotic dimension, coarse finitism, large scale weak paracompactness, ect. are all invari…

Atomistic or ab-initio molecular dynamics simulations are widely used to predict thermodynamics and kinetics and relate them to molecular structure.
