Proving homological stability for homeomorphisms of manifolds
arXiv:1510.02456
Abstract
Following the argument for diffeomorphisms by Galatius and Randal-Williams, we prove that homeomorphisms of 1-connected manifolds of even dimension at least 6 exhibit homological stability. We deduce similar results for PL homeomorphisms and homeomorphisms as a discrete group.
