Polynomial growth and property RDpRD_p for \'etale groupoids with applications to KK-theory

We investigate property $RD_p$ for \'etale groupoids and apply it to $K$-theory of reduced groupoid $L^p$-operator algebras. In particular, under the assumption of polynomial growth, we show that the $K$-theory groups for a reduced groupoid $L^p$-operator algebra is independent of $p\in (1, \infty)$. We apply the results to coarse groupoids and graph groupoids.Comment: Comments welcom
