Abstract

For a complete hyperbolic three manifold $M$, we consider the representations of $\pi_{1}(M)$ obtained by composing a lift of the holonomy with complex finite dimensional representations of $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbf{C})$. We prove a vanishing result for the cohomology of $M$ with coefficients twisted by these representations, using techniques of Matsushima--Murakami. We give some applications to local rigidity.
