Conjectures in the representation theory of the symmetric group
Question: What are current open conjectures about the representation theory of the symmetric group?
I am interested mostly in the characteristic 0 case, but conjectures for the modular case can also ...

Multiplicativity of Euler–Poincaré characteristics of cohomology of pro-$p$ groups
While reading a paper, I found a mentioning that for an extension $1 \rightarrow H \rightarrow G \rightarrow N \rightarrow 1$ of pro-$p$ groups, the Euler–Poincaré characteristics $\chi(H)$, $\chi(G)$,...

Cochains with multilinear differentials
Let $G$ be a group and let $M$ be a $G$-module. We denote by $(C^*(M,G),d)$ the complex of inhomogeneous cochains, i.e. $C^n(G,M)=M^{G^n}$.
We say that a cochain $a\in C^n(G,M)$ is multilinear if it ...

Group structure extension
Let $G$ be a finite group and $X$ a finite $G$-set. Let $H$ be the set-theoretical cartesian product of $G$ and $X$.
Is there an homological theory controlling all possible group structure on $H$ (...

Endomorphism ring of trivial source modules for abelian p-groups
Bernhard Böhmler (who is also on MO) and myself had the following idea:
Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p$ (algebraically closed when it is needed) such that $p$ divides ...

Cohomology of elementary abelian $p$-groups, i.e. $H(G,{\mathbb F}_p)$ with $G\cong{\mathbb F}_p^r$
I have two questions.
$\bf 1.$ First, a reference request. Let $G\cong{\mathbb F}_p^r$ for some integer $r\geq 0$ and let $V=G^*={\rm Hom}(G,{\mathbb F}_p)$. Then $(H(G,{\mathbb F}_p),+,\cup )$ is a ...

Faithfully flat modules over a group algebra
Suppose we have the following data:
1) A group ring $\mathbb{Z}[G]$, where $G$ is a torsion free group.
2) $M_{\bullet}$ a bounded (above and below) chain complex of $\mathbb{Z}[G]$-modules such ...

Liftings and splittings (reference request)
I'm writing a paper and, at a certain point, I need the following, rather elementary
Lemma. Assume that we have a commutative diagram of short exact sequences of groups of the form
Then the ...

mod p (odd) cohomology of dihedral groups
I've been trying to find the cohomology for the trivial module for $\operatorname{PSL}_2(r^n)$ over $\mathbb{F}_p$ for $2 \neq p \neq r$ and have managed to reduce this to the cohomology of a maximal ...

Equivalent descriptions of Coherent Groups
Attending a series of lectures, I have recently been exposed to the notion of Coherent groups, defined as following:
Def: A group $G$ is called Coherent if every finitely generated subgroup $H$ of $G$...

A question on some computation of group cohomologies
Let $G=H\times J$, where $H\cong J\cong C_2$ (cyclic group of order 2). Let $M \cong \mathbb{Z}$ be a $G$-module via "trivial $H$-action and negation $J$-action". My question is "What are the group ...

Where can I easily look up / calculate (abelian) group cohomology?
For an example I'm trying to understand, I need to calculate some cohomology group of some $\mathbb Z$-module with coefficients in some other $\mathbb Z$-module (with no interesting actions). (In ...
