Acyclic coefficient systems on buildings
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 April 2005
Abstract
For cohomological (respectively homological) coefficient systems ${\mathcal F}$ (respectively ${\mathcal V}$) on affine buildings X with Coxeter data of type $\widetilde{A}_d$, we give for any $k\ge1$ a sufficient local criterion which implies $H^k(X,{\mathcal F})=0$ (respectively $H_k(X,{\mathcal V})=0$). Using this criterion we prove a conjecture of de Shalit on the acyclicity of coefficient systems attached to hyperplane arrangements on the Bruhat–Tits building of the general linear group over a local field. We also generalize an acyclicity theorem of Schneider and Stuhler on coefficient systems attached to representations.
