Dupont's conjecture on the comparison map for continuous bounded cohomology

Let GG) be a connected, non-compact, semi-simple Lie group with finite center. Write

cG:Hb,c(G,R)Hc(G,R)c_G^*:H_{b,c}^*(G,\mathbb R)\rightarrow H_c^*(G,\mathbb R)

for the comparison map from continuous bounded cohomology to continuous cohomology. Dupont's conjecture. The map cGc_G^* is always surjective. This conjecture is equivalent to the assertion that the relevant GG-invariant forms on the associated symmetric space are bounded; its general validity is not established.
