Abstract: Let $zeta$ be a complex $ell$th root of unity for an odd integer $ell>1$. For any complex simple Lie algebra $mathfrakg$, let $u_{z}eta=u_{z}eta(mathfrakg)$ be the associated "small" quantum enveloping algebra. In general, little is known about the representation theory of quantum groups (resp., algebraic groups) when $l$ (resp., $p$) is smaller than the Coxeter number $h$ of the underlying root system. For example, Lusztig's conjecture concerning the characters of the rational irreducible $G$-modules stipulates that $pgeqh$. The main result in this paper provides a surprisingly uniform answer for the cohomology algebra $$ of the small quantum group. When $ell>h$, this cohomology algebra has been calculated by Ginzburg and Kumar cite{GK}. Our result requires powerful tools from complex geometry and a detailed knowledge of the geometry of the nullcone of $mathfrakg$. In this way, the methods point out difficulties present in obtaining similar results for the restricted enveloping algebra $u$ in small characteristics, though they do provide some clarification of known results there also. Finally, we establish that if $M$ is a finite dimensional $u_{z}eta$-module, then $$ is a finitely generated $$-module, and we obtain new results on the theory of support varieties for $u_{z}eta$.
