We prove a Banach version of Garland's method of proving vanishing of cohomology for groups acting on simplicial complexes. The novelty of this new version is that our new condition applies to every reflexive Banach space. This new version…

Garland introduced a vanishing criterion for a characteristic zero cohomology group of a locally finite and locally connected simplicial complex. The criterion is based on the spectral gaps of the graph Laplacians of the links of faces and…

Notions of higher Kazhdan property can be defined in terms of vanishing of unitary group cohomology in higher degrees. Garland's theorem for simple groups over non-archimedean fields provides the first examples of a higher Kazhdan property.…

We prove some vanishing theorems for the cohomology groups of local systems associated to Laurent polynomials. In particular, we extend one of the results of Gelfand-Kapranov-Zelevinsky into various directions.

We reprove and generalize the result that the intersection cohomology groups of a toric variety with coefficient in a nontrivial rank one local system vanish. We prove a similar vanishing result for a certain class of varieties on which a…

This paper presents a gentle introduction to cohomology vanishing theorems, largely based on the paper work of Hongshan Li. It offers an insightful exploration of unitary local systems on complex manifolds, particularly focusing on their…

Let $X$ be a pure $d$-dimensional simplicial complex. For $0\le k\le d$, let $X(k)$ be the set of $k$-dimensional faces of $X$, let $\tilde{L}_k(X)$ be the $k$-dimensional weighted total Laplacian operator on $X$, and let…

We prove the vanishing of bounded cohomology with separable dual coefficients for many groups of interest in geometry, dynamics, and algebra. These include compactly supported structure-preserving diffeomorphism groups of certain manifolds;…

This article is a survey of conjectures and results on reductive algebraic groups having good reduction at a suitable set of discrete valuations of the base field. Until recently, this subject has received relatively little attention, but…

This paper reproves a general form of the Green-Lazarsfeld 'generic vanishing' theorem and more recent strengthenings, as well as giving some new applications.

The main theorem of Galois theory states that there are no finite group-subgroup pairs with the same invariants. On the other hand, if we consider complex linear reductive groups instead of finite groups, the analogous statement is no…

We propose a new formulation of a vanishing theorem for surfaces. Although this vanishing theorem follows easily from the well-known Kawamata--Viehweg vanishing theorem, it turns out to be remarkably useful. In particular, it is sufficient…

We prove that the homology groups of any connected reductive group over a field with coefficients in the Steinberg representation vanish in a range. The generalizes work of Ash-Putman-Sam on the classical split groups. We state a…

We show that the Generalized Vanishing Conjecture $$\forall_{m \ge 1} [\Lam^m f^m = 0] \Longrightarrow \forall_{m \gg 0} [\Lam^m (g f^m) = 0]$$ for a fixed differential operator $\Lam \in k[\partial]$ follows from a special case of it,…

We establish strong vanishing theorems for line bundles on wonderful varieties of hyperplane arrangements, and we show that the resulting positivity properties of Euler characteristics extend to all matroids. We achieve this by showing that…

We prove the vanishing of certain low degree cohomologies of some induced representations. As an application, we determine certain low degree cohomologies of congruence groups.

The main purpose of this article is to define the notion of DuBois singularities for pairs and proving a vanishing theorem using this new notion. The main vanishing theorem specializes to a new vanishing theorem for resolutions of log…

Using the classical Lazard's elimination theorem, we obtain a decomposition theorem for Lie algebras defined by generators and relations of a certain type. This is a preprint version of the paper appearing in Communications in Algebra…

We prove a relative Kawamata Viehweg vanishing type theorem for birational morphisms. We use this to prove a Grauert Riemenschneider theorem over log canonical threefolds without zero dimensional log canonical centers, in residue…

We study the residual Eisenstein cohomology of semisimple groups in the context of maximal parabolic subgroups which remain maximal over $\mathbb{R}$. Under certain general hypotheses, we show that these residual representations are…
