Sur la cohomologie pour GL(n) sur un corps totalement imaginaire (Q4513073)

The goal is to study the cohomology of the space of automorphic forms for \(GL(n)\) over a totally imaginary field, \(k\). To do that we use Franke's realization of all automorphic forms as derivatives of Eisenstein series of square integrable ones, this gives us a ``simple'' subcomplex which computes the cohomology. Unfortunately this subcomplex is not simple enough to give a combinatorial description of the cohomology but we extract some results: -- a description of some ghost classes linked to zeros of \(L\)-functions -- the precise description of the non-zero classes in the \(A^2\) cohomology which become zero in the full cohomology. These descriptions are similar to those obtained by Harder in the case of \(GL(2)\) and \(GL(3)\) and those of Franke in the case of trivial coefficients. At the end, we prove that (under some hypothesis) the vanishing of the \(L\)-function of a pair of cuspidal automorphic representations at the center of symmetry is an arithmetical invariant.
