Popis: We study hyperbolic cohomology classes in the general context of simplicial complexes and prove homological invariance statements for them. We relate the existence of hyperbolic cohomology classes to the non-amenability of the fundamental group. In degree two we clarify the relation between hyperbolic and atoroidal classes, leading to an application to symplectically atoroidal manifolds.
