The Cohomology of Split Extensions of Elementary Abelian 2-groups and Totaro's Example
نویسنده
چکیده
In a previous paper we derived an expression for the di erentials in the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence of a split extension G = HoQ of nite groups with coe cients in a eld. Here we apply that result to the case where H and Q are elementary abelian 2-groups and char k = 2. We then work out a special case, in which H has rank 4 and Q has rank 2, from a class of examples constructed by Burt Totaro. Totaro proved that the spectral sequence arising from this extension could not collapse, but using our methods we are able to obtain complete information on the spectral sequence.

On component extensions locally compact abelian groups
Let $pounds$ be the category of locally compact abelian groups and $A,Cin pounds$. In this paper, we define component extensions of $A$ by $C$ and show that the set of all component extensions of $A$ by $C$ forms a subgroup of $Ext(C,A)$ whenever $A$ is a connected group. We establish conditions under which the component extensions split and determine LCA groups which are component projective. ...
متن کاملOn continuous cohomology of locally compact Abelian groups and bilinear maps
Let $A$ be an abelian topological group and $B$ a trivial topological $A$-module. In this paper we define the second bilinear cohomology with a trivial coefficient. We show that every abelian group can be embedded in a central extension of abelian groups with bilinear cocycle. Also we show that in the category of locally compact abelian groups a central extension with a continuous section can b...
متن کاملFirst non-abelian cohomology of topological groups II
In this paper we introduce a new definition of the first non-abelian cohomology of topological groups. We relate the cohomology of a normal subgroup $N$ of a topological group $G$ and the quotient $G/N$ to the cohomology of $G$. We get the inflation-restriction exact sequence. Also, we obtain a seven-term exact cohomology sequence up to dimension 2. We give an interpretation of the first non-a...
متن کاملOn Parity Complexes and Non-abelian Cohomology
To characterize categorical constraints associativity, commutativity and monoidality in the context of quasimonoidal categories, from a cohomological point of view, we define the notion of a parity (quasi)complex. Applied to groups gives non-abelian cohomology. The categorification functor from groups to monoidal categories provides the correspondence between the respective parity (quasi)comple...
متن کاملTHE POWER OF MOD P BOREL HOMOLOGY by J.P.G.Greenlees TO PROFESSOR H. TODA ON HIS 60 TH BIRTHDAY
When seeking an analogue of ordinary cohomology for spaces with a specified finite group G of symmetries we may think first of Bredon's cohomology for obstruction theory [7], and its extention to the stable context [13], [14], [21]. However the difficulty of calculating with Bredon cohomology is a severe drawback. We shall consider instead a substitute which had already been developed by Borel ...
