Title: High-dimensional group cohomology via tesselations of symmetric spaces

Group cohomology allows one to associate to a group a sequence of algebraic invariants. A main tool to compute these invariants for the group SLn(Z) are tessellations due to Voronoi of the symmetric space associated to SLn(R). I will indicate how these tessellations are defined and how they can be used to compute parts of the cohomology of SLn(Z), both by hand and using computers.
