For N=5, 6 and 7, using the classification of perfect quadratic forms, we compute the homology of the Voronoi cell complexes attached to the modular groups SL_N(\Z) and GL_N(\Z). From this we deduce the rational cohomology of those groups.
Let F be a nonarchimedean locally compact field with residue characteristic p and G(F) the group of F-rational points of a connected reductive group. Following Schneider and Stuhler, one can realize, in a functorial way, any smooth complex…
We extend the computations in [AGM4] to find the mod 2 homology in degree 1 of a congruence subgroup Gamma of SL(4,Z) with coefficients in the sharbly complex, along with the action of the Hecke algebra. This homology group is closely…
We prove that H^{d-1}(SL_n Z; Q) = 0, where d = n-choose-2 is the cohomological dimension of SL_n Z, and similarly for GL_n Z. We also prove analogous vanishing theorems for cohomology with coefficients in a rational representation of the…
We prove that the direct sum of all homology groups of the integral general linear groups with Steinberg module coefficients form a commutative Hopf algebra, in particular a free graded commutative algebra. We use this to construct new…
We extend the computations in our prior work to find the cohomology in degree five of a congruence subgroup Gamma of SL_4(Z) with coefficients in Sym^g(K^4), twisted by a nebentype character eta, along with the action of the Hecke algebra.…
Borel--Serre proved that for a number ring $R$ with fraction field $K$, the symplectic group $\text{Sp}_{2n}(R)$ is a virtual duality group of degree quadratic in $n$, and that the symplectic Steinberg module $\text{St}^\omega_{2n}(K)$ is…
We prove a new structural result for the spherical Tits building attached to SL_n(K) for many number fields K, and more generally for the fraction fields of many Dedekind domains O: the Steinberg module St_n(K) is generated by integral…
Let F be the imaginary quadratic field of discriminant -3 and OF its ring of integers. Let Gamma be the arithmetic group GL_3 (OF), and for any ideal n subset OF let Gamma_0 (n) be the congruence subgroup of level n consisting of matrices…
Let $N>1$ be an integer, and let $\Gamma = \Gamma_0 (N) \subset \SL_4 (\Z)$ be the subgroup of matrices with bottom row congruent to $(0,0,0,*)\mod N$. We compute $H^5 (\Gamma; \C) $ for a range of $N$, and compute the action of some Hecke…
Denote the virtual cohomological dimension of SL_n(Z) by t=n(n-1)/2. Let St denote the Steinberg module of SL_n(Q) tensored with Q. Let Sh_* denote the sharbly resolution of the Steinberg module St. By Borel-Serre duality, the…
We prove a representation stability result for the codimension-one cohomology of the level three congruence subgroup of $\mathbf{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$. This is a special case of a question of Church-Farb-Putman which we make more precise. Our…
We present an algorithm to compute the Hecke operators on the equivariant cohomology of an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}_n$. This includes $\mathrm{GL}_n$ over a number field or a finite-dimensional…
In two previous papers [AGM1, AGM2] we computed cohomology groups H^5(\Gamma_0 (N); \C) for a range of levels N, where \Gamma_0 (N) is the congruence subgroup of SL_4 (\Z) consisting of all matrices with bottom row congruent to (0,0,0,*)…
Cohomology of Specht modules for the symmetric group can be equated in low degrees with corresponding cohomology for the Borel subgroup B of the general linear group GL_d(k), but this has never been exploited to prove new symmetric group…
Let $G$ be a simply connected solvable Lie group with a lattice $\Gamma$ and $N$ the nilradical of $G$. For a complex valued representation $\rho: G\to GL(V_{\rho})$ such that the restriction $\rho_{|_{N}}$ is unipotent, as an advanced…
We calculate explicitly cohomologies of the lattices over the Kleinian 4-group belonging to the regular components of the Auslander-Reiten quiver as well as of their dual modules. The result is applied to the classification of some…
Let $G$ be the simple algebraic group $\mathrm{SL}_2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p > 0$. Using results of A. Parker, we develop a method which gives, for any $q \in \mathbb{N}$, a closed form…
In this paper we construct resolutions of finite dimensional irreducible gl(m|n)-modules in terms of generalized Verma modules. The resolutions are determined by the Kostant cohomology groups and extend the strong…
For a field $k$, we prove that the $i$th homology of the groups $GL_n(k)$, $SL_n(k)$, $Sp_{2n}(k)$, $SO_{n,n}(k)$, and $SO_{n,n+1}(k)$ with coefficients in their Steinberg representations vanish for $n \geq 2i+2$.
