Exotic cohomology for $GL_n(\mathbb Z[1/2])$ W. G. Dwyer Department of Mathematics, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana 46556 Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 126 (1998), 2159-2167. Abstract. We show that for $n = 32$ the mod $2$ group cohomology of $GL_n(\mathbb Z[1/2])$ is not detected on diagonal matrices.
