extension problem for the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence

For a generalized homology theory $h$ and a Serre fibration $F\rightarrow E\rightarrow B$, we can define an Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence\begin{equation}E^2_{p,q}=H_p(B,h_q(F))\Rightarrow h_{p+q}...

Differentials in spectral sequences and Massey products

Consider a multiplicative spectral sequence such as the cohomological Serre spectral. It is known that differentials will satisfy a Leibniz rule. Is there a clean statement involving differentials and ...

Cohomology of Lie group $E_8$, e.g. $H^d(E_8,\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})$

What is the $d$-th cohomology of a Lie group $E_8$, say $H^d(E_8,\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})$ with $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ coefficient? I suppose that there are many nontrivial groups of $H^d(E_8,\mathbb{...

Is there a systematic way to "bound" the $d_n$'s of ASS's by "pairing" them with elements in the $n$-line of the $E_2$ of the ASS of the sphere?

All details in the question are for the case $p=2$ though I expect the answer shouldn't be that different for odd primes. Adams showed (i think it was him) the following statement: The element $...

Two natural maps asssociated with the nerve of a cover

Let $X$ be a nice (e.g. paracompact, locally contractible) topological space, and let $\mathcal{U}=\{U_i\}_{i\in I}$ be an open cover of $X$. Also denote by $N$ the (topological realization of) the ...

Explicit description of the Leray spectral sequence with compact supports for a fibration

Consider a locally trivial fibration $f: E \to B$ with fiber $F = \mathbb{C}^n$. The Leray spectral sequence with compact supports is $$ E_2: H^p_c(B, \underline{H^q_c(F)}) \implies H^{p+q}_c(E). $$ ...

Does Kudo's transgression theorem still hold when the coefficient is ℤ/pⁿℤ?

I am trying to compute a Lyndon–Hochschild–Serre spectral sequence with coefficient $\mathbb{Z}/p^2\mathbb{Z}$, where $p$ is an odd prime, and Kudo's transgression theorem looks like a good tool for ...
