A characterization of relatively hyperbolic groups via bounded cohomology (Q1784009): Difference between revisions

Summary: It was proved by \textit{L. Mineyev} and \textit{A. Yaman} [``Relative hyperbolicity and bounded cohomology'', Preprint] that, if \((\Gamma,\Gamma')\) is a relatively hyperbolic pair, the comparison map \[ H_b^k(\Gamma,\Gamma';V)\to H^k(\Gamma,\Gamma';V) \] is surjective for every \(k\geq2\), and any bounded \(\Gamma\)-module \(V\). By exploiting results of \textit{D. Groves} and \textit{J. F. Manning} [Isr. J. Math. 168, 317--429 (2008; Zbl 1211.20038)], we give another proof of this result. Moreover, we prove the opposite implication under weaker hypotheses than the ones required by Mineyev and Yaman [loc. cit.] .
