Asymptotic Dimension
Abstract
Description
The asymptotic dimension theory was founded by Gromov in the early 90s. In this paper we give a survey of its recent history where we emphasize two of its features: an analogy with the dimension theory of compact metric spaces and applications to the theory of discrete groups.
Added some remarks about coarse equivalence of finitely generated groups.
