Lyndon–Hochschild–Serre spectral sequence for a non-normal subgroup
Is there an analogue of the Lyndon–Hochschild–Serre spectral sequence for a non-normal subgroup?
What can you say about it? Can you describe $E^{p, q}_1$ ? What is about $E^{p, q}_2$?
What is the best ...

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 ...

$G$ cocycle split and trivialized to a coboundary in $J$, given a group homomorphism $J \overset{r}{\rightarrow} G$
Consider a generic nontrivial 3-cocycle $\omega_3^G(g_1,g_2,g_3) \in H^3(G,U(1))$ in the cohomology group of $G$ with $U(1)=\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ coefficient. In otherwords, here the 3-cocycle $\...

Transgressions commute with the Steenrod operations on the base and fiber in a central group extension?
The following sentence is quoted from the paper ON THE COHOMOLOGY OF SPLIT EXTENSIONS by D. J. BENSON AND M. FESHBACH:
In general, the differentials in the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence

$G$ cocycle split to a coboundary in $J$, via a group extension
Consider a generic nontrivial $d$-cocycle $\omega_d^G \in H^d(G,U(1))$ in the cohomology group of a group $G$ with $U(1)=\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ coefficient. In otherwords, here the $d$-cocycle $\...

Explicit 2-cocycle from a 2nd cohomology group $H^2[Q_8 \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}, U(1)]$
I would like to know the explicit expression of 2-cocycle from a 2nd cohomology group $H^2[Q_8 \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}, U(1)]$ with $U(1)\equiv \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ coefficient, or namely $H^2[...

The computation of $d_2$ in the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence
I'm trying to understand the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence by an example. Consider the short exact sequence of groups:
$1\to N\to G\to G/N\to 1$
where $G\cong \mathbb{Z}_4$, $N\cong\mathbb{Z}_2$.

$SO(3)$ 2-cocycle trivialized to a 2-coboundary in $SU(2)$?
I was trying to understand this interesting question by example.
Let me follow their previous discussion and ask: Let a generic nontrivial 2-cocycle $\omega_2^G(g_1,g_2) \in H^2(G,\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{...

Trivial action in the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence
I probably don't understand something very basic about Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence.
Let $G$ be a group with normal subgroup $N$ and $M$ a $G$-module with trivial action. Then as far as I ...

Group cohomology with coefficients in a graded module
I am working in a problem group cohomology and nailed it down to compute a cohomology using an spectral sequence argument. The situation is as follows:
Let $G = C_4 = \langle \sigma \rangle$ be the ...

Induced Homomorphism on Cohomology of Symmetric Group 3
For the symmetric group $S_3$, there is an inclusion $i:\mathbb{Z}/3\mathbb{Z}\hookrightarrow S_3$. How can I assert that the induced homomorphism $$i^{\ast}:H^{n}(S_3,\mathbb{Z})\rightarrow H^{n}(\...

Trivialize a cocycle of a continuous Lie group-cohomology to a coboundary
Someone recently asks a question $SO(3)$ 2-cocycle trivialized to a 2-coboundary in $SU(2)$? now inspires me to revisit an earlier general question to ask an example of 3-cocycle
$\omega_3^G$ of a ...

Trivialize a cup-product 3-cocycle of $G$ in a larger group $J$
Inspired by this question, let us take a nontrivial 3-cocycle $\omega_3^G(g_a, g_b, g_c) \in H^3(G,\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z})$ in the cohomology group of $G$ with $U(1)=\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$ coefficient. ...

Trivialize a cup-product 2-cocycle of $G$ in a larger group $J$
I like to ask a simple question: how to trivialize a cup-product 2-cocycle of $G$ into a 2-coboundary of $J$ in a larger group $J$.
Let us take a nontrivial 2-cocycle $\omega_3^G(g_a, g_b) \in H^2(G,\...
