Embedding complexity into the universal Banach space and the strong Novikov conjecture

Brown-Guentner and Haagerup-Przybyszewska showed that every discrete group admits a proper affine isometric action on the universal Banach space $\bigoplus_{p=1}^{\infty} \ell^{2p}(\mathbb{N}),$ taken as the $\ell^{2}$-direct sum, and hence admits a coarse embedding into this space [7, 28]. They fur
