The Cohomology of Lie Groups

چکیده
We follow the computations in [2], [5], and [8] to deduce the cohomology rings of various Lie groups (SU(n), U(n), Sp(n) with Z-coefficients and SO(n), Spin(n), G2, F4, E6, E7, E8 with field coefficients) using the Serre spectral sequence.

Cohomology of aff(1|1) acting on the space of bilinear differential operators on the superspace IR1|1
We consider the aff(1)-module structure on the spaces of bilinear differential operators acting on the spaces of weighted densities. We compute the first differential cohomology of the Lie superalgebra aff(1) with coefficients in space Dλ,ν;µ of bilinear differential operators acting on weighted densities. We study also the super analogue of this problem getting the same results.
متن کاملSurjectivity of the Comparison Map in Bounded Cohomology for Hermitian Lie Groups
We prove surjectivity of the comparison map from continuous bounded cohomology to continuous cohomology for Hermitian Lie groups with finite center. For general semisimple Lie groups with finite center, the same argument shows that the image of the comparison map contains all the even degree primitive elements. Our proof uses a Hirzebruch type proportionality principle in combination with Gromo...
متن کاملDirac Operators and Lie Algebra Cohomology
Dirac cohomology is a new tool to study unitary and admissible representations of semisimple Lie groups. It was introduced by Vogan and further studied by Kostant and ourselves [V2], [HP1], [K4]. The aim of this paper is to study the Dirac cohomology for the Kostant cubic Dirac operator and its relation to Lie algebra cohomology. We show that the Dirac cohomology coincides with the correspondin...
متن کاملThe Lie Module Structure on the Hochschild Cohomology Groups of Monomial Algebras with Radical Square Zero
We study the Lie module structure given by the Gerstenhaber bracket on the Hochschild cohomology groups of a monomial algebra with radical square zero. The description of such Lie module structure will be given in terms of the combinatorics of the quiver. The Lie module structure will be related to the classification of finite dimensional modules over simple Lie algebras when the quiver is give...
متن کاملDigital cohomology groups of certain minimal surfaces
In this study, we compute simplicial cohomology groups with different coefficients of a connected sum of certain minimal simple surfaces by using the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology groups. The method used in this paper is a different way to compute digital cohomology groups of minimal simple surfaces. We also prove some theorems related to degree properties of a map on digital sph...
