Bounded cohomology of classifying spaces for families of subgroups

Kevin Li

Published 2021-05-11, updated 2021-05-19Version 2

We introduce a bounded version of Bredon cohomology for groups relative to a family of subgroups. Our theory generalizes bounded cohomology and differs from Mineyev--Yaman's relative bounded cohomology for pairs. We obtain cohomological characterizations of relative amenability and relative hyperbolicity, analogous to the results of Johnson and Mineyev for bounded cohomology.
