Theorem 1.2
Let $h\colon G\rightarrow \Gamma$ be a group homomorphism between two countable discrete groups. If both $G$ and $\Gamma$ are coarsely embeddable into Hilbert space, then the strong relative Novikov conjecture holds for $(G, \Gamma, h)$, that is, the relative Baum--Connes assembly map is injective.
