The `-cohomology of Artin Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
For each Artin group we compute the reduced `cohomology of (the universal cover of) its “Salvetti complex”. This is a CW-complex which is conjectured to be a model for the classifying space of the Artin group. In the many cases when this conjecture is known to hold our calculation describes the reduced `-cohomology of the Artin group.

The Cohomology of Right Angled Artin Groups with Group Ring Coefficients
We give an explicit formula for the cohomology of a right angled Artin group with group ring coefficients in terms of the cohomology of its defining flag complex.
متن کاملCohomology of Affine Artin Groups and Applications
The result of this paper is the determination of the cohomology of Artin groups of type An, Bn and Ãn with non-trivial local coefficients. The main result is an explicit computation of the cohomology of the Artin group of type Bn with coefficients over the module Q[q±1, t±1]. Here the first n− 1 standard generators of the group act by (−q)-multiplication, while the last one acts by (−t)-multipl...
متن کاملRepresentation Dimension and Finitely Generated Cohomology
We consider selfinjective Artin algebras whose cohomology groups are finitely generated over a central ring of cohomology operators. For such an algebra, we show that the representation dimension is strictly greater than the maximal complexity occurring among its modules. This provides a unified approach to computing lower bounds for the representation dimension of group algebras, exterior alge...
متن کاملCohomology of topological groups with applications to the Weil group
We establish various properties of the definition of cohomology of topological groups given by Grothendieck, Artin and Verdier in SGA4, including a Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence and a continuity theorem for compact groups. We use these properties to compute the cohomology of the Weil group of a totally imaginary field, and of the Weil-étale topology of a number ring recently introduced by ...
متن کامل18.785F17 Number Theory I Lecture 23 Notes: Tate Cohomology
In this lecture we introduce a variant of group cohomology known as Tate cohomology, and we define the Herbrand quotient (a ratio of cardinalities of two Tate cohomology groups), which will play a key role in our proof of Artin reciprocity. We begin with a brief review of group cohomology, restricting our attention to the minimum we need to define the Tate cohomology groups we will use. At a nu...
