Witte on the superigidity of lattices in solvable Lie groups we get a different proof of a recent remarkable result obtained by D. Guan on the de Rham cohomology of a compact solvmanifold, i.e. of a quotient of a connected and simply connected solvable Lie group $G$ by a lattice $\\Gamma$. This result can be applied to compute the Betti numbers of a compact solvmanifold $G/\\Gamma$ even in the case that the solvable Lie group $G$ and the lattice $\\Gamma$ do not satisfy the Mostow condition.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-12-10T14:33:51.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "53C30", "22E25", "22E40" ], "keywords": [ "rham cohomology", "compact solvmanifold", "simply connected solvable lie group", "betti numbers", "mostow condition" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0912.2006C" } } }
