Abstract
We consider cusped hyperbolic manifolds, and compute \v{C}ech cohomology groups of the Morse boundaries of their fundamental groups. In particular, we show that the reduced \v{C}ech cohomology with real coefficients vanishes in dimension at most and does not vanish in dimension . A similar result holds for relatively hyperbolic groups with virtually nilpotent peripherals and Bowditch boundary homeomorphic to a sphere; these include all non-uniform lattices in rank simple Lie groups.
