For any reductive group $G$ and a parabolic subgroup $P$ with its Levi subgroup $L$, the first author [Ku2] introduced a ring homomorphism $ \xi^P_\lambda: Rep^\mathbb{C}_{\lambda-poly}(L) \to H^*(G/P, \mathbb{C})$, where $…

We prove that for any infinite field homology stability for the third integral homology of the special linear groups $SL(n,F)$ begins at $n=3$. When $n=2$ the cokernel of the map from the third homology of $SL(2,F)$ to the third homology of…

In this paper we compute the cohomology groups of GL(4,Z) with coefficients in symmetric powers of the standard representation twisted by the determinant. This problem arises in Goncharov's approach to the study of motivic multiple zeta…

We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a…

We prove that the fundamental group of any integer homology 3-sphere different from the 3-sphere admits irreducible representations of its fundamental group in SL(2,C). For hyperbolic integer homology spheres this comes with the definition,…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$ and $M$ an $R$-module. We intend to establish the dual of Grothendieck's Vanishing Theorem for local homology modules. We conjecture that $H^{\fa}_i(M)=0$ for all $i>\Mag_RM$.…

We report on computations of the cohomology of GL_2(O_D) and SL_2(O_D), where D<0 is a fundamental discriminant. These computations go well beyond earlier results of Vogtmann and Scheutzow. We use the technique of homology of Voronoi…

A conjecture of Min\'a\v{c} and T\^an predicts that for any n>2, any prime p and any field k, the Massey product of n Galois cohomology classes in H^1(k,Z/pZ) must vanish if it is defined. We establish this conjecture when k is a number…

In \cite{Broer1993}, it was shown that certain line bundles on $\widetilde{\mathcal{N}}=T^*G/B$ have vanishing higher cohomology. We prove a generalization of this theorem for real reductive algebraic groups. More specifically, if…

For regular local ring, the ``second vanishing theorem'' or ``SVT'' of local cohomology has been proved in several cases. In this paper, we explore the result similar to that of the SVT to Stanley-Reisner ring with an interpretation from…

We extend the techniques developed by Millson and Raghunathan to prove nonvanishing results for the cohomology of compact arithmetic quotients of hyperbolic n-space with values in the local coefficient systems associated to finite…

We show various vanishing theorems for the cohomology groups of compact hermitian manifolds for which the Bismut connection has (restricted) holonomy contained in SU(n) and classify all such manifolds of dimension four. In this way we…

For a real closed field $\mathbf{R}$, we use the theory of the refined Bloch group to give a new short proof of the isomorphisms $H_{3}(SL_{2}(\mathbf{R}),\mathbb{Z})\cong K_{3}^{\mathrm{ind}}(\mathbf{R})$ and…

We prove a vanishing theorem of the cohomology arising from the two Quantized Drinfeld-Sokolov reductions (``+'' and ``-'' reduction) introduced by Feigin-Frenkel and Frenkel-Kac-Wakimoto. As a consequence, the vanishing conjecture of…

In this article, we first consider the $L^{2}$ \textit{Morse-Novikov cohomology} on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ equipped with a parallel $1$-form which includes Vaisman manifold. Based on a vanishing theorem of $L^{2}$…

Let $\Gamma_n(p)$ be the level-$p$ principal congruence subgroup of $\text{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$. Borel-Serre proved that the cohomology of $\Gamma_n(p)$ vanishes above degree $\binom{n}{2}$. We study the cohomology in this top degree…

The main purpose of this article is to give the integral cohomology of classical principal congruence subgroups in SL(2,Z) as well as their analogues in the third braid group with local coefficients in symmetric powers of the natural…

The holonomy group of an (n+2)-dimensional simply-connected, indecomposable but non-irreducible Lorentzian manifold (M,h) is contained in the parabolic group $(\mathbb{R} \times SO(n))\ltimes \mathbb{R}^n$. The main ingredient of such a…

Let $k$ be a finite field, a $p$-adic field or a number field. Let $K$ be a finite extension of the Laurent series field in $m$ variables $k((x_1,...,x_m))$ or, more generally, a finite extension of the field of rational functions…

Let F be a field of characteristic zero and let V be an irreducible representation of SL_n(F). In this paper, we compute the first cohomology of SL_n(F[t]) with coefficients in V. It agrees with H^1(SL_n(F),V) if V is not the adjoint…
