Abstract

We prove the K and L theoretic versions of the Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture of F.T. Farrell and L.E. Jones for braid groups on a surface.

D. Juan-Pineda—We acknolwedge support and grants from DGAPA-UNAM and CONACyT-México.

L.J.S. Saldaña—The second Author would like to thank Prof. D. Juan Pineda for his encouragement and acknowledges support from a CONACyT-México graduate scholarship.
