| Jun 9, 2017 at 18:00 | comment | added | Stefan Behrens | I recently stumbled across a paper by G. Lusztig called "Novikov's higher signature and families of elliptic operators". It contains a proof of said case of Novikov's conjecture based on the Atiyah-Singer index theorem for families. Is that simple enough for you?
