cohomologie automorphe et compactifications partielles de certaines variétés de griffiths–schmid

Abstract

we study some automorphic cohomology classes of degree one on the griffiths–schmid varieties attached to some unitary groups in three variables. using partial compactifications of those varieties, constructed by kato and usui, we define for such a cohomology class some analogues of fourier–shimura coefficients, which are cohomology classes on certain elliptic curves. we show that a large space of such automorphic classes can be generated by those with rational ‘coefficients’. more precisely, we consider those cohomology classes that come from picard modular forms, via some penrose-like transform studied in a previous article: we prove that the coefficients of the classes thus obtained can be computed from the coefficients of the picard form by a similar transform defined at the level of the elliptic curve.
