Description

The Higman-Thompson groups are groups of certain self-homeomorphisms of Cantor sets. They can be described using tree diagrams. We compute their homology in a stable range by constructing a scanning map following the work of Madsen, Weiss, Galatius and others. This scanning map allows us to express the stable homology of the Higman-Thompson groups as the homology of a certain spectrum.
