Finiteness of homological filling functions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let G be a group. For any mathbbZG--module M and any integer d>0, we define a function FVMd+1colonmathbbNomathbbNcupinfty generalizing the notion of (d+1)--dimensional filling function of a group. We prove that this function takes only finite values if M is of type FPd+1 and d>0, and remark that the asymptotic growth class of this function is an invariant of M. In the particular case that G is a group of type FPd+1, our main result implies that its (d+1)-dimensional homological filling function takes only finite values, addressing a question from [12].
