Vanishing of cohomology and property (T) for groups acting on weighted simplicial complexes

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We extend Ballmann and ͆wiatkowski's work on cohomology of groups acting on simplicial complexes and provide further vanishing results of cohomologies and of property (T). In particular, we give a new criterion for property (T) for groups acting on an n-dimensional simplicial complex.
