A construction of residues of Eisenstein series and related square- integrable classes in the cohomology of arithmetic groups of low k-rank

The cohomology of an arithmetic congruence subgroup of a connected reductive algebraic group defined over a number field is captured in the automorphic cohomology of that group. The residual Eisenstein cohomology is by definition the part of the automorphic cohomology represented by square- integrable residues of Eisenstein series. The existence of residual Eisenstein cohomology classes depends on a subtle combination of geometric conditions (coming from cohomological reasons) and arithmetic conditions in terms of analytic properties of automorphic L-functions (coming from the study of poles of Eisenstein series). Hence, there are almost no unconditional results in the literature regarding the very existence of non-trivial residual Eisenstein cohomology classes. In this paper, we show the existence of certain non-trivial residual cohomology classes in the case of the split symplectic, and odd and even special orthogonal groups of rank two, as well as the exceptional group of type G(2), defined over a totally real number field. The construction of cuspidal automorphic representations of GL(2) with prescribed local and global properties is decisive in this context.
