THE KAROUBI-WEIBEL COMPLEXITY FOR GROUPS

Résumé

Let G be a finitely presented group. A new complexity called Karoubi-Weibel complexity or covering type, is defined for G. The construction is inspired by recent work of Karoubi and Weibel [16], initially applied to topological spaces. We introduce a similar notion in combinatorial form in order to apply it to finitely presentable groups. Some properties of this complexity as well as a few examples of calculation/estimation for certain classes of finitely presentable groups are considered. Finally we give a few applications of complexity to some geometric problems, namely to the systolic area and the volume entropy of groups.
