An explicit growth condition for middle-degree cuspidal cohomology of arithmetically defined quaternionic hyperbolic n-manifolds

Let G/\mathbb Q{G/\mathbb Q} be the simple algebraic group Sp(n, 1) and G = G(N){\Gamma=\Gamma(N)} a principal congruence subgroup of level N ≥ 3. Denote by K a maximal compact subgroup of the real Lie group G(\mathbb R){G(\mathbb R)} . Then a double quotient G\G(\mathbb R)/K{\Gamma\backslash G(\mathbb R)/K} is called an arithmetically defined, quaternionic hyperbolic n-manifold. In this paper we give an explicit growth condition for the dimension of cuspidal cohomology H²ⁿ_cusp(G\G(\mathbb R)/K,E){H^{2n}_{cusp}(\Gamma\backslash G(\mathbb R)/K,E)} in terms of the underlying arithmetic structure of G and certain values of zeta-functions. These results rely on the work of Arakawa (Automorphic Forms of Several Variables: Taniguchi Symposium, Katata, 1983, eds. I. Satake and Y. Morita (Birkh?user, Boston), pp. 1–48, 1984).
