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…

Let $\Sigma_d$ denote the symmetric group of degree $d$ and let $K$ be a field of positive characteristic $p$. For $p>2$ we give an explicit description of the first cohomology group $H^1(\Sigma_d,{\rm{Sp}}(\lambda))$, of the Specht module…

We calculate the cohomology of $\mathfrak{sl}_3(k)$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>3$ with coefficients in simple modules and Weyl modules. We also give descriptions of the corresponding cohomology of…

Let G be the simple, simply connected algebraic group SL_3 defined over an algebraically closed field K of characteristic p>0. In this paper, we find H^2(G,V) for any irreducible G-module V. When p>7 we also find H^2(G(q),V) for any…

We classify all homomorphisms between Weyl modules for SL_3(k) when k is an algebraically closed field of characteristic at least three, and show that the Hom-spaces are all at most one-dimensional. As a corollary we obtain all…

In this paper, we calculate cohomology of a classical Lie algebra of type $A_2$ over an algebraically field $k$ of characteristic $p=3$ with coefficients in simple modules. To describe their structure, we will consider them as modules over…

Given a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ and a positive real multiparameter $\bq$, we study the "weighted $L^2$-cohomology groups," of a certain simplicial complex $\Sigma$ associated to $(W,S)$. These cohomology groups are Hilbert spaces, as well as…

Let Vn be the SL2-module of binary forms of degree n and let V = Vn1+...+Vnp . We consider the algebra R of polynomial functions on V invariant under the action of SL2. The measure of the intricacy of these algebras is the length of their…

This paper contains both theoretical results and experimental data on the behavior of the dimensions of the cohomology spaces H^1(G,E_n), where Gamma is a lattice in SL(2,C) and E_n is one of the standard self-dual modules. In the case…

In 2011, Guralnick and Tiep proved that if $G$ was a Chevalley group with Borel subgroup $B$ and $V$ an irreducible $G$-module in cross characteristic with $V^B = 0$, then the the dimension of $H^1(G,V)$ is determined by the structure of…

We analyse the recursive formula found for various Ext groups for $\SL_2(k)$, $k$ a field of characteristic $p$, and derive various generating functions for these groups. We use this to show that the growth rate for the cohomology of…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$, and let $G$ be a simple simply-connected algebraic group over $k$ that is defined and split over the prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$. In this paper we investigate situations…

We describe an essential improvement of our recent algorithm for computing cohomology of Lie (super)algebra based on partition of the whole cochain complex into minimal subcomplexes. We replace the arithmetic of rational numbers or integers…

Let G be a finite group of Lie type, defined over a field k of characteristic p > 0. We find explicit bounds for the dimension of the first cohomology group for G with coefficients in a simple kG-module. We proceed by bounding the number of…

Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $p$. We show that $\Hom_{F\Sigma_n}(S^\lambda, S^\mu)$ can have arbitrarily large dimension as $n$ and $p$ grow, where $S^\lambda$ and $S^\mu$ are Specht modules for the symmetric group $\Sigma_n$.…

In this paper, we compute the singular cohomology groups $H^*(C_2(M);\mathbb{F}_2)$ of the ordered 2-configuration space $C_2(M)$ as $\Sigma_2$-representations. Using the result, we determine the mod 2 cohomology of the unordered…

We entirely compute the cohomology for a natural and large class of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ modules $M$. We study the restriction to the $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ cohomology of $M$ and apply our results to the module $M={\mathfrak D}_{\lambda,\mu}$…

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 study the adjoint cohomology of perfect Lie algebras over the complex numbers. For the family of perfect Lie algebras $\mathfrak{g}=\mathfrak{sl}_2(\Bbb C)\ltimes V_m$ we obtain some explicit results for $H^k(\mathfrak{g},\mathfrak{g})$…
