Decomposition complexity growth of finitely generated groups.

Finite decomposition complexity and asymptotic dimension growth are two generalizations of M. Gromov’s asymptotic dimension which can be used to prove property A for large classes of finitely generated groups of infinite asymptotic dimension. In this paper, we introduce the notion of decomposition complexity growth, which is a quasi-isometry invariant generalizing both finite decomposition complexity and dimension growth. We show that subexponential decomposition complexity growth implies property A, and is preserved by certain group and metric constructions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
