Pairings, duality, amenability and bounded cohomology

Jacek Brodzki, Graham A. Niblo, Nick J. Wright (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We give a new perspective on the homological characterizations of amenability given by Johnson & Ringrose in the context of bounded cohomology and by Block & Weinberger in the context of uniformly finite homology. We examine the interaction between their theories and explain the relationship between these characterizations. We apply these ideas to give a new proof of non-vanishing for the bounded cohomology of a free group.

Nash cohomology of smooth manifolds

W. Kucharz (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

A Nash cohomology class on a compact Nash manifold is a mod 2 cohomology class whose Poincaré dual homology class can be represented by a Nash subset. We find a canonical way to define Nash cohomology classes on an arbitrary compact smooth manifold M. Then the Nash cohomology ring of M is compared to the ring of algebraic cohomology classes on algebraic models of M. This is related to three conjectures concerning algebraic cohomology classes.
