Cohomological gap in arithmetic groups
$\DeclareMathOperator\SL{SL}$For the sake of this question, let's say that a group $G$ of finite cohomological dimension $n$ has a cohomological gap if for some $0 < i < n$ there is no subgroup $...

Cohomology of $S$-arithmetic groups with trivial coefficients such as $H^n(\rm{PGL}_2(\mathbb{Z}[1/N]);\mathbb{Z})$
As $\rm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z})=(\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})*(\mathbb{Z}/3\mathbb{Z})$, its cohomology groups $H^n(\rm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z});\mathbb{Z})$ are easy to get.
Let $N$ be a product of distinct primes.

Cohomology ring $H^*(\operatorname{SL}(3,\mathbb{Z}),\mathbb{Z}_2)_{(2)}$
$\DeclareMathOperator\SL{SL}$In Soulé's paper "The cohomology of $\SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$" the cohomology ring $H^*(\SL(3,\mathbb{Z}),\mathbb{Z})_{(2)}$ is determined in Theorem 4.iv. I'm wanting ...

Cohomology of cocompact lattices in hyperbolic spaces
I have a (maybe too naive) hope that cocompact torsion-free arithmetic lattices in hyperbolic spaces $X \neq \mathbb{H}_\mathbb{R}^2$ are uniquely determined by their cohomology with coefficients in $\...

What is known about the cohomology of the U-duality group?
$\newcommand{\Es}{E_{7(7)}}\newcommand{\Z}{\mathbb Z}$Let $\Es$ denote the split form of $E_7$, which is a real Lie
group. It can be characterized as the subgroup of $\mathrm{Sp}_{56}(\mathbb R)$ ...

Cohomology of $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb Z)$ with coefficients
Let $K$ be a number field, which can be $\mathbb Q(\zeta)$ with $\zeta$ a root of unity if that helps, and let $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ act on $(K^\times)^n:=K^\times\times\cdots\times K^\...

Cohomology of linear algebraic groups
Let $R$ be a commutative ring. Let $G\subset \mathrm{GL}_m$ be a linear algebraic subgroup. Has the group cohomology $H^i(G(R),R^m)$ been studied in the literature?
For example, do we know
(1) $H^...

Cohomology of $\operatorname{SO}(p,q;\mathbb{Z})$ with $p=3,q=19$
I would like to understand the topology of the moduli space of Einstein orbifold metrics on the $K3$-surface. It is known that this space is given by the bi-quotient $SO(3,19;\mathbb{Z})\setminus SO(3,...

Lower bounds for the top rational cohomology of arithmetic groups
I would like to know what estimates exist for the dimension of $H^d({\rm GL}_2(\mathcal{O}_{K,S}),\mathbb{Q})$ where $\mathcal{O}_{K,S}$ is a ring of $S$-integers in a number field $K$ and $d$ is the ...

Cohomology of certain arithmetic groups
This is a question on literature about cohomology of arithmetic groups.
Let $M$ denote a quaternion algebra over $\mathbb Q$ and assume it is non-split over $\mathbb R$. Fix a maximal order $\Lambda$ ...

Non-vanishing of the Borel classes in the cohomology of $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb Z)$
$\DeclareMathOperator\SL{SL}$The stable real cohomology of $\SL_n(\mathbb Z)$ was computed by Borel: it is given by $\mathbb R[z_i\mid i=5,9,13,\dotsc]$ with $z_i$ in degree $i$. One may wonder ...

H_3 of SL(n,Z) and SL(n,F_p)
Can anyone tell me what $H_3(SL_n(\mathbb{Z});\mathbb{Z})$ and $H_3(SL_n(\mathbb{F}_p);\mathbb{Z})$ are? It is easy to find references for $H_1$ and $H_2$, but it turns out that I need $H_3$ as well. ...

Cohomology of discrete group with compact support
This is closely related to a previous question on the topic, but hopefully adds some motivation.
Let $G_{/\mathbf Q}$ be a semisimple group, $K\subset G(\mathbf R)$ a maximal compact subgroup, and $...
