group cohomology


Let G be a group and let M be a (left) G-module. The0th cohomology groupPlanetmathPlanetmath of the G-module M is

H0(G,M)={mM:σG,σm=m}

which is the set of elements of M which are G-invariant, alsodenoted by MG.

A map ϕ:GM is said to be a crossedhomomorphism (or 1-cocycle) if

ϕ(αβ)=ϕ(α)+αϕ(β)

for all α,βG. If we fix mM, the mapρ:GM defined by

ρ(α)=αm-m

is clearly a crossed homomorphism, said to be principal (or1-coboundary). We define the following groups:

Z1(G,M)={ϕ:GM:ϕ is a 1-cocycle}
B1(G,M)={ρ:GM:ρ is a1-coboundary}

Finally, the 1st cohomology group of the G-moduleM is defined to be the quotient groupMathworldPlanetmath:

H1(G,M)=Z1(G,M)/B1(G,M)

The following proposition is very useful when trying to computecohomology groups:

Proposition 1.

Let G be a group and let A,B,C be G-modules related by anexact sequencePlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath:

0ABC0

Then there is a long exact sequence in cohomology:

0H0(G,A)H0(G,B)H0(G,C)H1(G,A)H1(G,B)H1(G,C)

In general, the cohomology groups Hn(G,M) can be defined asfollows:

Definition 1.

Define C0(G,M)=M and for n1 define the additive groupMathworldPlanetmath:

Cn(G,M)={ϕ:GnM}

The elements of Cn(G,M) are called n-cochains. Also, forn0 define the nth coboundaryMathworldPlanetmath homomorphismMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath dn:Cn(G,M)Cn+1(G,M):

dn(ϕ)(g1,,gn+1)=g1ϕ(g2,,gn+1)
+i=1n(-1)iϕ(g1,,gi-1,gigi+1,gi+2,,gn+1)
+(-1)n+1ϕ(g1,,gn)

Let Zn(G,M)=kerdn for n0, the set ofn-cocyles. Also, let B0(G,M)=1 and for n1 letBn(G,M)=imagedn-1, the set ofn-coboundaries.

Finally we define the nth-cohomology group of G withcoefficients in M to be

Hn(G,M)=Zn(G,M)/Bn(G,M)
