Rational cohomology and Zariski dense subgroups of solvable linear algebraic groups
Abstract
In this article, we establish results concerning the cohomology of Zariski dense subgroups of solvable linear algebraic groups. We show that for an irreducible solvable -defined linear algebraic group , there exists an isomorphism between the cohomology rings with coefficients in a finite dimensional rational -module of the associated -defined Lie algebra and Zariski dense subgroups that satisfy the condition that they intersect the -split maximal torus discretely. We further prove that the restriction map in rational cohomology from to a Zariski dense subgroup with coefficients in is an injection. We then derive several results regarding finitely generated solvable groups of finite abelian rank and their representations on cohomology.
