Abstract

We study vanishing results for L²-cohomology of countable groups under the presence of subgroups that satisfy some weak normality condition. As a consequence, we show that the L²-Betti numbers of SL_n(R) for any infinite integral domain R vanish below degree n-1. Another application is the vanishing of all L²-Betti numbers for Thompson's groups F and T.
