Stabilization of Bounded Cohomology for Classical Groups

Group Theory 2023-07-26 v2 K-Theory and Homology

Abstract

We show that bounded cohomology stabilizes along sequences of classical Lie groups, and along sequences of lattices in them. Our method is based on a criterion from (arXiv:2307.12808) which adapts Quillen's stability method to the setting of bounded cohomology. This criterion is then applied to a family of measured complexes, the so-called Stiefel complexes, associated to any vector space endowed with a non-degenerate sesquilinear form.
