  • Abstract: Finitely $\mathcal{F}$-amenable group actions, where $\mathcal{F}$ is a family of subgroups, were introduced by Bartels in his work on the Farrell-Jones Conjecture as a useful reformulation of the geometric conditions used by Bartels-Lück-Reich in their groundbreaking work on the Farrell-Jones Conjecture for Gromov hyperbolic groups. In this talk we will use the notion of permanence properties of metric families in coarse geometry to discuss some coarse geometric applications of finitely $\mathcal{F}$-amenable group actions as well as some open questions.
