If $L$ is a flag triangulation of $S^{n-1}$, then the Davis complex $\Sigma_L$ for the associated right-angled Coxeter group $W_L$ is a contractible $n$-manifold. A special case of a conjecture of Singer predicts that the $L^2$-homology of…

Associated to any finite flag complex L there is a right-angled Coxeter group W_L and a contractible cubical complex Sigma_L (the Davis complex) on which W_L acts properly and cocompactly, and such that the link of each vertex is L. It…

We give a proof of the Singer conjecture (on the vanishing of reduced $\ell^2$-homology except in the middle dimension) for the Davis Complex $\Sigma$ associated to a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ whose nerve $L$ is a triangulation of…

Associated to any Coxeter system $(W,S)$, there is a labeled simplicial complex $L$ and a contractible CW-complex $\Sigma_L$ (the Davis complex) on which $W$ acts properly and cocompactly. $\Sigma_L$ admits a cellulation under which the…

Given a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ there is a contractible simplicial complex $\Sigma$ called the Davis complex on which $W$ acts properly and cocompactly. In an article of Dymara, the weighted $L^2$-(co)homology groups of $\Sigma$ were…

We generalize the methods in previous work to provide a program for proving Singer's Conjecture for Coxeter systems. Specifically, we consider even Coxeter systems with nerves that are flag triangulations of $\BS^{n-1}$, $n=2k$. We prove…

We study group actions on manifolds that admit hierarchies, which generalizes the idea of Haken n-manifolds introduced by Foozwell and Rubinstein. We show that these manifolds satisfy the Singer conjecture in dimensions $n \le 4$. Our main…

Given a Coxeter system (W,S), there is an associated CW-complex, Sigma, on which W acts properly and cocompactly. We prove that when the nerve L of (W,S) is a flag triangulation of the 3-sphere, then the reduced $\ell^2$-homology of Sigma…

We construct a spectral sequence for L2-type cohomology groups of discrete measured groupoids. Based on the spectral sequence, we prove the Hopf-Singer conjecture for aspherical manifolds with poly-surface fundamental groups. More…

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…

The Flag Complex Conjecture of Charney and Davis states that for a simplicial complex $S$ which triangulates a $(2n - 1)$-generalized homology sphere as a flag complex one has $(-1)^n \sum_{\sigma \in S}…

Associated to a Coxeter system $(W,S)$ there is a contractible simplicial complex $\Sigma$ called the Davis complex on which $W$ acts properly and cocompactly by reflections. Given a positive real multiparameter $\mathbf{q}$, one can define…

Given an $n$-dimensional compact complex Hermitian manifold $X$, a $C^\infty$ complex line bundle $L$ equipped with a connection $D$ whose $(0,\,1)$-component $D''$ squares to zero and a real-valued function $\eta$ on $X$, we prove that the…

Using $L^2$-methods, we prove a vanishing theorem for tame harmonic bundles over quasi-compact K\"ahler manifolds in a very general setting. As a special case, we give a completely new proof of the Kodaira type vanishing theorems for Higgs…

In 1995, Koll\'ar conjectured that a smooth complex projective $n$-fold $X$ with generically large fundamental group has Euler characteristic $\chi(X, K_X)\geq 0$. In this paper, we prove the conjecture assuming $X$ has linear fundamental…

The "zero in the spectrum conjecture" asserted (in its strongest form) that for any manifold M zero should be in the l2-spectrum of the Laplacian (on forms) of the universal covering of M, i.e. that at least one (unreduced) L2-cohomology…

We show a homological result for the class of planar or symmetric operad groups: We show that under certain conditions, group (co)homology of such groups with certain coefficients vanishes in all dimensions, provided it vanishes in…

We propose singular variants of the Singer-Hopf conjecture, formulated in terms of the Euler-Mather characteristic, intersection homology Euler characteristic and, resp., virtual Euler characteristic of a closed irreducible subvariety of an…

We construct and study a closed, two-dimensional, quasi-topological (0,2) gauged sigma model with target space a smooth G-manifold, where G is any compact and connected Lie group. When the target space is a flag manifold of simple G, and…

Andreotti-Vesentini, Ohsawa, Gromov, Koll\'ar, among others, have observed that Hodge theory could be extended to (non compact) K\"ahler complete manifolds, within the L^2 framework. Also, many vanishing theorems on projective or K\"ahler…
