Abstract
The notions of operator norm localization property and finite decomposition complexity were recently introduced in metric geometry to study the coarse Novikov conjecture and the stable Borel conjecture. In this paper we show that a metric space X has weak finite decomposition complexity with respect to the operator norm localization property if and only if X itself has the operator norm localization property. It follows that any metric space with finite decomposition complexity has the operator norm localization property. In particular, we obtain an alternative way to prove a very recent result by E. Guentner, R. Tessera and G. Yu that all countable linear groups have the operator norm localization property.
