Almost flat bundles and homological invariance of infinite K-area

From MaRDI portal

Abstract: We extend the notion of an almost flat bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold to bundles over simplicial complexes, and prove that up to a constant factor, this notion is invariant under pullback via maps which induce isomorphisms on fundamental groups. As an application, we show that the property of having infinite K-area only depends on the image of the fundamental class under the classifying map of the universal cover.
