A group is of typeVFif it has a finite-index subgroup which has a finite classifying space. We construct groups of typeVFin which the centralizers of some elements of finite order are not of typeVFand groups of typeVFcontaining infinitely many conjugacy classes of finite subgroups. It follows that a groupGof typeVFneed not admit a finite-type universal properG-space. We construct groupsGfor which the minimal dimension of a universal properG-space is strictly greater than the virtual cohomological dimension ofG. Each of our groups embeds inGLm(ℤ) for sufficiently largem. Some applications toK-theory are also considered.
