Abstract: This paper considers a higher-dimensional generalization of the notion of Ramanujan graphs, defined by Lubotzky, Phillips, and Sarnak. Specifically the Ramanujan property is studied for cubical complexes which are uniformized by an ordered product of regular trees. We construct explicit arithmetic examples using quaternion algebras over totally real fields. Here we reduce the Ramanujan property to special cases of the Ramanujan-Petersson conjecture for holomorphic Hilbert modular forms, many of which are known.

Review text

\textit{A. Lubotzky}, \textit{R. Phillips} and \textit{P. Sarnak} [Combinatorica 8, 261-277 (1988; Zbl 0661.05035)] defined Ramanujan graphs as regular graphs whose adjacency matrices, or their Laplacians, have eigenvalues satisfying certain ``best possible bounds. The present authors present a higher-dimensional generalization of this concept to regular cubical complexes. They construct infinite families of Ramanujan regular cubical complexes, with fixed regularities \((r_1,\dots, r_g)\), where \(r_j= q_j+ 1\) and the \(q_j\)'s are any prime powers. The construction uses quaternion algebras over totally real number fields. They also construct Ramanujan local systems on their examples. Their theory is also valid for Hermitian local systems over cubical complexes.
