Whitehead group not GL?

[edit]

I have the following question: is there an example of f.p. group whose Whitehead group is not in GLn for some finite n?

What's h?

[edit]

I'm guessing its the dimension of the boundary manifolds. The number one rule of good mathematical writing is to quantify everything. Woood (talk) 07:27, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could you be more specific? Rybu (talk) 06:51, 20 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
