In a joint work with M. Frączyk and S. Hurtado we showed that for the sub-class of arithmetic locally symmetric spaces similar bounds hold for torsion homology. In most cases we also obtain sublinear bounds for the Betti numbers on terms of the volume. The main tools for both results are geometric, and i will explain our main technical result, a stronger version of the Margulis lemma specific to arithmetic manifolds.
