Explicit fundamental domain for the action of $\operatorname{O}(n,1)(\mathbb{Z})$ on $\operatorname{O}(n,1)(\mathbb{R})$

Minkowski computed explicit fundamental domains for the action of $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ on $\operatorname{SL}_n(\mathbb{R})/\operatorname{SO}_n(\mathbb{R})$ for each $n \leq 6$. In the ...

Finite models for torsion-free lattices

Let $G$ be a real, connected, semisimple Lie group and $\Gamma < G$ a torsion-free lattice. Then does there exist a finite $CW$-model for $B\Gamma$? I know this to be true in many instances (e.g. ...
