The ingredients are a nilpotent dg Lie algebra $\\mathfrak{g}(X)$ in the category of algebraic representations of a certain reductive algebraic group $R(X)$ together with an arithmetic subgroup $\\Gamma(X)$ of $R(X)$. The algebraic model reduces the computation of the rational cohomology ring of $B\\operatorname{aut}(X)$ to the computation of Chevalley-Eilenberg cohomology of dg Lie algebras and cohomology of arithmetic groups with coefficients in algebraic representations. This has strong consequences for the structure of this ring.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-03-04T17:47:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55R40", "55P62", "55R15", "11F75" ], "keywords": [ "classifying space", "fibrations", "nilpotent dg lie algebra", "algebraic representations", "rational homotopy type" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 54, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
