Some Research Articles
arXiv:1008.3664 On the geometry of global function fields, the Riemann-Roch theorem, and finiteness properties of S-arithmetic groups from arXiv Front: math.AG by Ralf Gramlich Harder's reduction theory provides filtrations of euclidean buildings that allow one to deduce cohomological and homological properties of S-arithmetic groups over global function fields. In this survey I will sketch the main points of Harder's reduction theory starting from Weil's geometry of numbers and the Riemann-Roch theorem, describe a filtration that is particularly useful for deriving finiteness properties of S-arithmetic groups, and state the rank conjecture and its partial verifications that do not restrict the cardinality of the underlying field of constants. As a motivation for further research I also state a much more general conjecture on isoperimetric properties of S-arithmetic groups over global fields (number fields or function fields).
arXiv:1001.0789 Perfect forms and the cohomology of modular groups from arXiv Front: math.NT by Philippe Elbaz-Vincent, Herbert Gangl, Christophe Soulé For N=5, 6 and 7, using the classification of perfect quadratic forms, we compute the homology of the Voronoi cell complexes attached to the modular groups SLN(\Z) and GLN(\Z). From this we deduce the rational cohomology of those groups.

Apparently this cohomology can also be interpreted as cohomology of some moduli spaces, see for example answers to this question: http://mathoverflow.net/questions/805/cohomology-of-moduli-spaces
