Abstract: We study actions by higher-rank abelian groups on quotients of semisimple Lie groups with finite center. First, we consider actions arising from the flows of two commuting elements of the Lie algebra--one nilpotent, and the other semisimple. Second, we consider actions from two commuting unipotent flows coming from two commuting embedded copies of SL(2,R). In both cases we show that any smooth real-valued cocycle over the action is cohomologous to a constant cocycle via a smooth transfer function.

Review text

The author is concerned with smooth \(\mathbb{R}\)-valued cocycles over actions by higher-rank subgroups on quotients of semistable Lie groups. Let \(G\) be a noncompact simple Lie group with finite center and Lie algebra \(\mathfrak{g}\) and \(\Gamma\subset G\) be a lattice. Three theorems are proved in the paper for the following cases: (i) actions on a compact \(G/\Gamma\) arising from two commuting flows - one nilpotent and the other semistable, (ii) smooth cocycles over unipotent actions, (iii) smooth \(\mathbb{R}\)-valued cocycles over the \(V\)-action on \(G/\Gamma.\) They establish, under additional conditions, that all cocycles are smoothly cohomologous to constant cocycles.
