The Kazhdan Property of the Mapping Class Group of Closed Surfaces and the First Cohomology Group of Its Cofinite Subgroups

چکیده

In the following we show that the mapping class group of a closed surface of genus 2 does not satisfy the Kazhdan property by constructing subgroups of nite index having a non-vanishing rst cohomology group. We also construct some subgroups of nite index in the mapping class group of a genus 3 surface and calculate their rst cohomology groups, which all turn out to be trivial. Most of the calculations have been carried out by the aid of a computer using the programming language GAP 1 (see [Sc]).

Extension functors of local cohomology modules

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with non-zero identity, $fa$ an ideal of $R$, and $X$ an $R$--module. Here, for fixed integers $s, t$ and a finite $fa$--torsion $R$--module $N$, we first study the membership of $Ext^{s+t}_{R}(N, X)$ and $Ext^{s}_{R}(N, H^{t}_{fa}(X))$ in the Serre subcategories of the category of $R$--modules. Then, we present some conditions which ensure the exi...

Digital 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...

Module cohomology group of inverse semigroup algebras

Let $S$ be an inverse semigroup and let $E$ be its subsemigroup of idempotents. In this paper we define the $n$-th module cohomology group of Banach algebras and show that the first module cohomology group $HH^1_{ell^1(E)}(ell^1(S),ell^1(S)^{(n)})$ is zero, for every odd $ninmathbb{N}$. Next, for a Clifford semigroup $S$ we show that $HH^2_{ell^1(E)}(ell^1(S),ell^1(S)^{(n)})$ is a Banach sp...

On the Farrell Cohomology of the Mapping Class Group of Non-orientable Surfaces

We study the unstable cohomology of the mapping class groups Ng of non-orientable surfaces of genus g. In particular, we determine for all genus g and all primes p when the group Ng is p-periodic. To this purpose we show that Ng is a subgroup of the mapping class group Γg−1 of an orientable surface of genus g − 1 and deduce that Ng has finite virtual cohomological dimension. Furthermore, we des...

Cohomological Structure of the Mapping Class Group and Beyond

In this paper, we briefly review some of the known results concerning the cohomological structures of the mapping class group of surfaces, the outer automorphism group of free groups, the diffeomorphism group of surfaces as well as various subgroups of them such as the Torelli group, the IA outer automorphism group of free groups, the symplectomorphism group of surfaces. Based on these, we pres...
