چکیده
We calculate the integral cohomology ring structure for various members of the Bianchi group family. The main tools we use are the Bockstein spectral sequence and a long exact sequence derived from Bass-Serre theory.

The Mod-2 Cohomology of the Bianchi Groups
The Bianchi groups are a family of discrete subgroups of PSL2(C) which have group theoretic descriptions as amalgamated products and HNN extensions. Using Bass-Serre theory, we show how the cohomology of these two constructions relates to the cohomology of their pieces. We then apply these results to calculate the mod-2 cohomology ring for various Bianchi groups.
متن کاملAccessing the cohomology of discrete groups above their virtual cohomological dimension
We introduce a method to explicitly determine the Farrell–Tate cohomology of discrete groups. We apply this method to the Coxeter triangle and tetrahedral groups as well as to the Bianchi groups, i.e. PSL2(O) for O the ring of integers in an imaginary quadratic number field, and to their finite index subgroups. We show that the Farrell–Tate cohomology of the Bianchi groups is completely determi...
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 کاملDigital cohomology groups of certain minimal surfaces
In this study, we compute simplicial cohomology groups with different coefficients of a connected sum of certain minimal simple surfaces by using the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology groups. The method used in this paper is a different way to compute digital cohomology groups of minimal simple surfaces. We also prove some theorems related to degree properties of a map on digital sph...
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...
