For any discrete, torsion-free subgroup Γ of Sp(n, 1) (resp. F−20 4 ) with no parabolic elements, we prove that H4n−1(Γ;V ) = 0 (resp. Hi(Γ;V ) = 0 for i = 13, 14, 15) for any Γ–module V . The main technical advance is a new bound on the p–Jacobian of the barycenter map of Besson–Courtois–Gallot. We also apply this estimate to obtain an inequality between the critical exponent and homological d...

we developed an immunogen to stimulate multivalent immunity against hepatitis b surface antigen (hbsag) and hepatitis b core antigens (hbcag). immune responses specific for both hbsag and hbcag play an important role in controlling the infection. hbsag-specific antibodies mediate elimination of virions at an early stage of infection and prevent the spread of virus. the immunogen was constructed...
