Inductive dimensions of coarse proximity spaces

From MaRDI portal





In this paper, the authors generalize the notion of asymptotic inductive dimension to coarse proximity spaces.\N\NLet \(\nu X\) be the Higson corona of a proper metric space \(X\), \(\dim (\nu X)\) the covering dimension of \(\nu X\), \(\operatorname{Ind}(\nu X)\) the large inductive dimension of \(\nu X\), and \(\operatorname{asdim}(X)\) the asymptotic dimension of \(X\). \textit{A. N. Dranishnikov} et al. [Topology 37, No. 4, 791--803 (1998; Zbl 0910.54026)] proved that \(\dim (\nu X) \leq \operatorname{asdim} (X)\) for every proper metric space \(X\). Furthermore, \textit{A. N. Dranishnikov} [Russ. Math. Surv. 55, No. 6, 1085--1129 (2000; Zbl 1028.54032); translation from Usp. Mat. Nauk 55, No. 6, 71--116 (2000)] proved that \(\dim (\nu X) = \operatorname{asdim} (X)\) provided that \(\operatorname{asdim} (X)< \infty\).\N\NIn [JP J. Geom. Topol. 1, No. 3, 239--247 (2001; Zbl 1059.54024)], \textit{A. N. Dranishnikov} introduced the asymptotic inductive dimension \(\operatorname{asInd} (X)\) for a proper metric space \(X\), proving that \(\operatorname{Ind} (\nu X)\leq\operatorname{asInd} (X)\) for every proper metric space \(X\), and that \(\dim (\nu X) =\operatorname{asdim} (X) =\operatorname{Ind} (\nu X) =\operatorname{asInd} (X)\) provided that \(\operatorname{asdim} (X)< \infty\) and \(X\) is of bounded geometry. The assumption that \(X\) is of bounded geometry was removed in [\textit{A. Dranishnikov} and \textit{M. Zarichnyi}, Topology Appl. 140, No. 2--3, 203--225 (2004; Zbl 1063.54027)].\N\NIn [\textit{P. Grzegrzolka} and \textit{J. Siegert}, Topology Appl. 251, 18--46 (2019; Zbl 1404.54021); \textit{P. Grzegrzolka} and \textit{J. Siegert}, Eur. J. Math. 9, No. 2, Paper No. 28, 26 p. (2023; Zbl 1515.54022)], the authors introduced coarse proximity spaces \((X,\mathcal{B},\mathbf{b})\) and their boundaries \(\mathcal{U}X\). If \((X,\mathcal{B},\mathbf{b})\) is the metric coarse proximity space induced by a proper metric space \(X\), then \(\mathcal{U}X\) coincides with the Higson corona of \(X\).\N\NIn this paper, the authors generalize the definition of asymptotic inductive dimension to coarse proximity spaces and prove that \(\operatorname{Ind}(\mathcal{U}X)\leq\operatorname{asInd}(X)\) for all coarse proximity spaces \((X,\mathcal{B},\mathbf{b})\). As a sufficient condition for the equality \(\operatorname{Ind}(\mathcal{U}X)=\operatorname{asInd}(X)\), they introduce the notion of complete traceability for boundaries of coarse proximity spaces. It is shown that spaces whose boundaries are \(Z\)-sets and spaces admitting metrizable compactifications have completely traceable boundaries. They also show that there exists a coarse proximity space \((X,\mathcal{B},\mathbf{b})\) such that \(\dim (\mathcal{U}X) < \operatorname{asInd} (X)\).
