A natural way to obtain a system of partial differential equations on a manifold is to vary a suitably defined sesquilinear form. The sesquilinear forms we study are Hermitian forms acting on sections of the trivial [Formula: see text]-bundle over a smooth [Formula: see text]-dimensional manifold without boundary. More specifically, we are concerned with first order sesquilinear forms, namely, those generating first order systems. Our goal is to classify such forms up to [Formula: see text] gauge equivalence. We achieve this classification in the special case of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] by means of geometric and topological invariants (e.g., Lorentzian metric, spin/spinc structure, electromagnetic covector potential) naturally contained within the sesquilinear form — a purely analytic object. Essential to our approach is the interplay of techniques from analysis, geometry, and topology.

By assuming the endoscopic classification of automorphic representations on inner forms of unitary groups, which is currently work in progress by Kaletha, Minguez, Shin, and White, we bound the growth of cohomology in congruence towers of locally symmetric spaces associated to$U(n,1)$. In the case of lattices arising from Hermitian forms, we expect that the growth exponents we obtain are sharp in all degrees.
