A refinement of bounded cohomology
arXiv:2208.03168
Abstract
We introduce a refinement of bounded cohomology and prove that the suitable comparison homomorphisms vanish for an amenable group. We investigate in this context Thompson's group F and provide further evidence towards its amenability. We provide a source of nontrivial 1-bounded classes and show that the space of 1-bounded classes in degree 2 is huge.
