cohomology group theorem
The following theorem involves Eilenberg-MacLane spaces in relation to cohomology groups
forconnected CW-complexes
.
Theorem 0.1.
Cohomology group theorem for connected CW-complexes ([1]):
Let be Eilenberg-MacLane spaces for connectedCW complexes (http://planetmath.org/CWComplexDefinitionRelatedToSpinNetworksAndSpinFoams) ,Abelian groups and integers . Let us also consider the set of non-basepointed homotopy classes of non-basepointed maps and the cohomolgy groups (http://planetmath.org/GroupCohomology) . Then, there exist the following natural isomorphisms:

- 1.
In order to determine all cohomology operations one needs only to compute the cohomology
of allEilenberg-MacLane spaces ; (source: ref [1]);
- 2.
When , and is non-Abelian
, one still has that , that is, the conjugacy class
or representation
of into ;

A derivation of this result based on the fundamental cohomology theorem is also attached.
