Let Γ be a congruence subgroup of level N in GL n (Z). Let P be a maximal Q -parabolic subgroup of GL n / Q , with unipotent radical U , and let Q = (P ∩ Γ) / (U ∩ Γ). Let p > dim Q ⁡ (U (Q)) + 1 be a prime number that does not divide N. Let M be a (U , p) -admissible Γ-module. Consider the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence arising from the exact sequence 1 → U ∩ Γ → P ∩ Γ → Q → 1 , which abuts to H ⁎ (P ∩ Γ , M). We show that if M is a trivial U ∩ Γ -module, then certain classes in the E 2 page survive to E ∞. We use this to obtain information about classes in H ⁎ (P ∩ Γ , M) even if M is not a trivial U ∩ Γ -module. This information will be used in future work to prove a Serre-type conjecture for sums of two irreducible Galois representations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We consider stratifying ideals of finite dimensional algebras in relation with Morita contexts. A Morita context is an algebra built on a data consisting of two algebras, two bimodules and two morphisms. For a strongly stratifying Morita context - or equivalently for a strongly stratifying ideal - we show that Han's conjecture holds if and only if it holds for the diagonal subalgebra. The main tool is the Jacobi-Zariski long exact sequence. One of the main consequences is that Han's conjecture holds for an algebra admitting a strongly (co-)stratifying chain whose steps verify Han's conjecture. If Han's conjecture is true for local algebras and an algebra Λ admits a primitive strongly (co-)stratifying chain, then Han's conjecture holds for Λ. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let B ⊂ A be a left or right bounded extension of finite dimensional algebras. We use the Jacobi-Zariski long nearly exact sequence to show that B satisfies Han's conjecture if and only if A does, regardless if the extension splits or not. We provide conditions ensuring that an extension by arrows and relations is left or right bounded. Finally we give a structure result for extensions of an algebra given by a quiver and admissible relations, and examples of non split left or right bounded extensions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
