摘要:
We prove that Thompson's group V is acyclic, answering a 1992 question of Brown in the positive. More generally, we identify the homology of the Higman-Thompson groups V-n,V-r with the homology of the zeroth component of the infinite loop space of the mod n - 1 Moore spectrum. As V = V-2,V-1, we can deduce that this group is acyclic. Our proof involves establishing homological stability with respect to r, as well as a computation of the algebraic K-theory of the category of finitely generated free Cantor algebras of any type n.
