Abstract

We prove that the continuous cohomology of Isom+(Hn)\text{Isom}^+(\mathbb{H}^n) can be measurably realized on the boundary of hyperbolic space. This implies in particular that for Isom+(Hn)\text{Isom}^+(\mathbb{H}^n) the comparison map from continuous bounded cohomology to continuous cohomology is injective in degree 33. We furthermore prove a stability result for the continuous bounded cohomology of Isom(Hn)\text{Isom}(\mathbb{H}^n) and Isom(HCn)\text{Isom}(\mathbb{H}_{\mathbb{C}}^n).
