Stability in the homology of unipotent groups

Andrew Putman, Steven V Sam and Andrew Snowden

Abstract

Let $R$ be a (not necessarily commutative) ring whose additive group is finitely generated and let $U_{n} (R) \subset {G L}_{n} (R)$ be the group of upper-triangular unipotent matrices over $R$ . We study how the homology groups of $U_{n} (R)$ vary with $n$ from the point of view of representation stability. Our main theorem asserts that if for each $n$ we have representations $M_{n}$ of $U_{n} (R)$ over a ring $k$ that are appropriately compatible and satisfy suitable finiteness hypotheses, then the rule $[n] \mapsto H_{i} (U_{n} (R), M_{n})$ defines a finitely generated $O I$ -module. As a consequence, if $k$ is a field then $dim H_{i} (U_{n} (R), k)$ is eventually equal to a polynomial in $n$ . We also prove similar results for the Iwahori subgroups of ${G L}_{n} (𝒪)$ for number rings $𝒪$ .
