Cohomology <strong>of</strong> ˆ Ň<br />
The cohomologies H ∗ (N d ), H ∗ (Ň d ) and H ∗ ( ˆN d ) are well<br />
understood.<br />
[Harder–Narasimhan 1975] obtained recursive formulae for<br />
#N (Fq) ❀ formula for Betti numbers via <strong>the</strong> Weil<br />
conjectures [Deligne 1974]<br />
[Atiyah–Bott 1981] gave different gauge-<strong>the</strong>oretic pro<strong>of</strong><br />
Theorem (Harder–Narasimhan, 1975)<br />
The finite group Γ acts trivially on H ∗ (Ň d ).<br />
In particular H ∗ (Ň d ) ∼ = H ∗ ( ˆN d ).<br />
pro<strong>of</strong> by showing #Ň d (Fq) = # ˆN d (Fq)<br />
