    Astérisque
    Volume: 4512024; 102 pp
    MSC: Primary 46; 19; 58; 37; 22; 28; 31; 35

    In this volume, the authors introduce a property of topological dynamical systems that they call finite dynamical complexity. For systems with this property, one can in principle compute the \( K\)-theory of the associated crossed product \(C^{∗}\)-algebra by splitting it up into simpler pieces and using the methods of controlled \(K\)-theory. The main part of the paper illustrates this idea by giving a new proof of the Baum-Connes conjecture for actions with finite dynamical complexity.

    The authors have tried to keep the volume as self-contained as possible and hope the main part will be accessible to someone with the equivalent of a first course in operator \(K\)-theory. In particular, they do not assume prior knowledge of controlled \(K\)-theory and use a new and concrete model for the Baum-Connes conjecture with coefficients that requires no bivariant \(K\)-theory to set up.
