RESUMO
Among other results, we rationally calculate the algebraic K-theory of any discrete cocompact subgroup of a Lie group G, where G is either O(n, 1), U(n, 1), Sp(n, 1), or F4, in terms of the homology of the double coset space Γ\G/K, where K is a maximal cocompact subgroup of G. We obtain the formula Kn(ZΓ) [unk] [unk] ≅ [unk]i=0∞Hi(Γ\G/K; [unk]n-i), where [unk]j is a stratified system of Q vector spaces over Γ\G/K and the vector space [unk]j(ΓgK) corresponding to the double coset ΓgK is isomorphic to KJ(Z(Γ [unk] gKg-1)) [unk] Q. Note Γ [unk] gKg-1 is a finite subgroup of Γ. Earlier, a similar formula for discrete cocompact subgroups Γ of the group of rigid motions of Euclidean space was conjectured by F. T. Farrell and W. C. Hsiang and proven by F. Quinn.
