Apr 30, 2017 at 11:03 comment added José Figueroa-O'Farrill In Maple 2016 (sorry I'm late to the discussion), it can compute relative cohomology with values in a representation. Example 5 in the documentation shows how to define the representation.
Sep 27, 2014 at 19:49 comment added Leo @MicheleTorielli In Maple, can the coefficients of the Lie algebra be Integers $\mathbb{Z}$, so that cohomology is of the form $\mathbb{Z}^r\oplus\mathbb{Z}_{t_1}\oplus\ldots\oplus\mathbb{Z}_{t_s}$? If not, is there any software for that?

Oct 30, 2010 at 8:34 comment added Michele Torielli yes, I agree with you but when you open the description of the command LieALgebra Cohomology it seems that it can compute only if the representation is a Lie subalgebra. Thank you for the replay.
Oct 29, 2010 at 19:35 comment added mathphysicist @Michele: this depends on the version of Maple. At least they claim that Maple 12 can compute the Lie algebra cohomology with coefficients in a representation: maplesoft.com/view.aspx?SF=5898/M12WhatsNewPro.pdf
Oct 28, 2010 at 15:22 comment added Michele Torielli If I'm not wrong, maple can only compute the cohomology of $\mathfrak{g}$ in a Lie subalgebra, not in any representation.
