Quillen's vanishing conjecture for linear groups

Let GLj(R)GL_j(R) be the general linear group and let Dj(R)GLj(R)D_j(R)\subset GL_j(R) be its diagonal subgroup. For group homology with coefficients in kk, the canonical inclusion induces

ρ:Hi(Dj(R);k)Hi(GLj(R);k).\rho:H_i(D_j(R);k)\to H_i(GL_j(R);k).

Here R=Z[ζp,1/p]R=\mathbb Z[\zeta_p,1/p], where pp is a regular odd prime and ζp\zeta_p is a primitive ppth root of unity, and k=Fpk=\mathbb F_p. Quillen's conjecture. The homomorphism ρ\rho is an epimorphism for every ii and jj. The conjecture has been proved in several low-rank cases but disproved for infinitely many cases, including sufficiently large ranks for particular rings; its general formulation is therefore refuted.
