Abstract

Let F be a real quadratic field with ring of integers O andwith class number 1. Let Γ be a congruence subgroup of GL2(O). Wedescribe a technique to compute the action of the Hecke operators on thecohomology H3(Γ;C). For F real quadratic this cohomology group containsthe cuspidal cohomology corresponding to cuspidal Hilbert modularforms of parallel weight 2. Hence this technique gives a way to computethe Hecke action on these Hilbert modular forms.
