Abstract
In this paper, we show that any ascending
HNN-extension of a finitely presented group is properly
3-realisable. We recall that a finitely presented group
G is said to be properly
3-realisable if there exists a compact 2-polyhedron K with 
(K)
G and whose universal
cover 
has the
proper homotopy type of a (PL) 3-manifold (with boundary).
