Transgression in bounded cohomology and a conjecture of Monod

Abstract:

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.
