Euclidean Dehn complex cohomology conjecture

At least 21 years old · documented by

Let FF be an algebraically closed field, and let E(n)∗(F){\cal E}_{(n)}^{\ast}(F) be the degree-nn Euclidean Dehn complex of Euclidean scissor congruence groups. For an FF-vector space VV, write V<n>V<n> for the F∗F^*-module on which f∈F∗f\in F^* acts by multiplication by f2n+1f^{2n+1}. Let ΩF/Qj\Omega^j_{F/\mathbb{Q}} denote the space of Kähler jj-forms over Q\mathbb{Q}. Euclidean Dehn complex conjecture. If FF is algebraically closed, then there are canonical isomorphisms of F∗F^*-modules

Hi(E(n)∗(F))=ΩF/Qi−1<n>.H^i({\cal E}_{(n)}^{\ast}(F))=\Omega^{i-1}_{F/\mathbb{Q}}<n>.

The same assertion is proposed for the classical case F=RF=\mathbb{R}. This predicts that the Euclidean Dehn complex computes differential forms, extending the expected relationship between scissor congruence groups and additive or infinitesimal motivic structures.
