Abstract (Expand)

We develop an algebro-analytic framework for the systematic study of the con-tinuous bounded cohomology of Lie groups in large degree. As an application, we examine the continuous bounded cohomology of \mathrmPSL(2,\mathbb R) with trivial real coefficients in all degrees greater than two. We prove a vanishing result for strongly reducible classes, thus providing further evidence for a conjecture of Monod. On the cochain level, our method yields explicit formulas for cohomological primitives of arbitrary bounded cocycles.

We analyze existence, uniqueness and regularity of solutions for perturbations of the Spence-Abel equation for the Rogers’ dilogarithm. As an application we deduce a version of Hyers-Ulam stability for the Spence-Abel equation.

Abstract (Expand)

We present a new technique that employs partial differential equations in order to explicitly construct primitives in the continuous bounded cohomology of Lie groups. As anapplication, we prove a a vanishing theorem for the continuous bounded cohomology of SL(2,R) in degree four, establishing a special case of a conjecture of Monod.

Abstract (Expand)

We explain how the generalized Milnor–Wood inequality of Burger and Iozzi for reductive representations of a cocompact complex-hyperbolic lattice into a Hermitian Lie group translates under the non-abelian Hodge correspondence into an inequality for topological invariants of the corresponding Higgs bundles. In this manner, we obtain in a uniform way a universal Milnor–Wood inequality for Higgs bundles over complex-hyperbolic manifolds of arbitrary dimensions and with arbitrary Hermitian structure group. This complements results of Biquard, Bradlow, García-Prada, Gothen, Mundet, Rubio and Chaput, Koziarz, Maubon.
