Real forms of a complex reductive group are classified by Galois cohomology H^1(Gamma,G_ad) where G_ad is the adjoint group. Cartan's classification of real forms in terms of maximal compact subgroups can be stated in terms of H^(Z/2Z,G_ad)…

Real forms of a complex reductive group are classified in terms of Galois cohomology $H^1(\Gamma,G_{ad})$ where $G_{ad}$ is the adjoint group. Alternatively, the theory of the Cartan involution gives a description in terms of cohomology…
The solvable Baumslag Solitar groups $\text{BS}(1,n)$ each admit a canonical model space, $X_n$. We give a complete classification of lattices in $G_n = \text{Isom}^+(X_n)$ and find that such lattices fail to be strongly…
Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold equipped with a Gauduchon metric. If $TM$ is holomorphically trivial, and (V, \theta) is a stable SL(r,{\mathbb C})-Higgs bundle on $M$, then we show that $\theta= 0$. We show that the correspondence…

We prove that in a cocompact complex hyperbolic arithmetic lattice $\Gamma < {\rm PU}(m,1)$ of the simplest type, deep enough finite index subgroups admit plenty of homomorphisms to $\mathbb{Z}$ with kernel of type $\mathscr{F}_{m-1}$ but…
Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and $K$ a closed connected subgroup. Assume that the order of any torsion element in the integral cohomology of $G$ and $K$ is invertible in a given principal ideal domain $k$. It is known that in…
Let $E\to B$ be a complex analytic fiber bundle with fiber $F$, a flag variety over a compact complex manifold $B$. We shall obtain a description of the cohomology of $E$ when $B=X_\Gamma:=\Gamma\backslash X, E=Y_\Gamma:=\Gamma\backslash Y$…
It is, by now, classical that lattices in higher rank semisimple groups have various rigidity properties. In this work, we add another such rigidity property to the list: uniform stability with respect to the family of unitary operators on…
We study the harmonic space of line bundle valued forms over a covering manifold with a discrete group action $\Gamma$, and obtain an asymptotic estimate for the $\Gamma$-dimension of the harmonic space with respect to the tensor times $k$…
This paper is concerned with the primitive cohomology of a smooth projective hypersurface considered as a linear representation for its automorphism group. Using the Lefschetz-Riemann-Roch formula, the character of this representation is…
Let $X$ denote the non-compact globally Hermitian symmetric space of type $DIII$, namely, $\text{SO}(n,\mathbb{H})/\text{U}(n)$. Let $\Lambda$ be a uniform torsionless lattice in $\text{SO}(n,\mathbb{H})$. In this note we construct certain…
We show that a surjective homomorphism $\varphi \colon \Gamma \to K$ of (discrete) groups induces an isomorphism $H^\bullet_b(K; V) \to H^\bullet_b(\Gamma; \varphi^{-1} V)$ in bounded cohomology for all dual normed $K$-modules $V$ if and…
Let $G$ be a connected complex Lie group and $\Gamma\subset G$ a cocompact lattice. Let $H$ be a complex Lie group. We prove that a holomorphic principal $H$-bundle $E_H$ over $G/\Gamma$ admits a holomorphic connection if and only if $E_H$…
The Eichler-Shimura isomorphism describes a certain cohomology group with coefficients in a space of polynomials by using holomorphic modular/cusp forms. It determines a canonical decomposition of the corresponding de Rham cohomology group…

Consider a compact K\"ahler manifold endowed with a prequantum bundle. Following the geometric quantization scheme, the associated quantum spaces are the spaces of holomorphic sections of the tensor powers of the prequantum bundle. In this…
