Zimmer's conjecture for lattice actions: the ${\rm SL}(n, \mathbb C)$-case

Abstract: We prove Zimmer's conjecture for co-compact lattices in ${\rm SL}(n, \mathbb C)$: for any co-compact lattice in ${\rm SL}(n, \mathbb C)$, $n \geq 3$, any $\Gamma$-action on a compact manifold $M$ with dimension: (I) less than $2n-2$ if $n \neq 4$, (II) less than $5$ if $n = 4$, by $C^{1+\epsilon}$ diffeomorphisms factors through a finite action.
