Classifying space of a non-discrete group and relationship between group homology and topological homology of Lie groups
I have a very soft question which might be very standard in textbooks or literature but I haven't seen it.
To a fixed group $G$ we may attach different topologies to make it different topological ...

Spectral sequences in algebraic topology [duplicate]
What books/articles do you recommend for learning spectral sequences? I am interested in their applications to algebraic topology, particularly to understand the homology of fibre bundles. I have a ...

Explicit computation of hyper Ext in terms of the homologies of the input chain complexes
This question was asked on math.stackexchange and didn't receive any traction, so I'm turning to the MO community. Hello!
Let $C_{\bullet}$ and $D_{\bullet}$ be chain complexes of $R$-modules for some ...

Reference request: cohomology of Eilenberg Maclane spaces with $p$-local groups
In Rudyak's 'On Thom Spectra, Orientability, and Cobordism', the following fact is used:
Let $\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}$ be $\mathbb{Z}$ localized at the ideal $(p)$. Let $\pi,\tau$ be two cyclic $\mathbb{...

Can we construct a filtered chain complex from a spectral sequence?
Suppose $\{(E_r,d_r)\}$ for $r>0$ forms a spectral sequence over a field $\mathbb{F}$, i.e. for any $r$, $(E_r,d_r)$ is a chain complex over $\mathbb{F}$ and $E_{r+1}=H(E_r,d_r)$. For simplicity, ...

Computations using "Stover's spectral sequence"
In this article from 1990, Stover describes a specral sequence which converges to the higher homotopy groups of the homotopy colimit of a diagram $\underline{X}$ of topological spaces.
The second ...

Functoriality of Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence - Reference Request
I'm interested in a text book reference on the functoriality of the Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence. The only reference I found are these lecture notes by Kupers (link should lead to the target ...

How are p-primary parts determined for odd p?
When looking at surveys of computations of the homotopy groups of spheres there is a common theme. All the odd primary parts are thrown away.
How are odd primary part calculations done in relation ...

Cap product on Leray-Serre spectral sequences
Let $\ p:X\to B\ $ be a fibration of spaces with fiber $F$. Then there are homological and cohomological Leray-Serre spectral sequences $E^{r}_{pq}$ and $E_r^{pq}$ that converge to $H_*(X)$ and $H^*(...

Multiplicative Structure of the Atiyah-Hirzebruch/Leray-Serre spectral sequence
This is related to this question (edit: now answered, see below). Is there a nice explanation of the multiplicative structure on the higher pages of that spectral sequence? I want to assume that $h$ ...

Reference for specific detail on Serre spectral sequence
In "A primer on spectral sequences" http://www.math.uchicago.edu/~may/MISC/SpecSeqPrimer.pdf (by J.P.May apparently, although no name is given in the pdf) I found a very detailed version of the ...

Functoriality of Leray homology spectral sequences of fibrations
Let $p\colon E\to B$ and $p'\colon E'\to B'$ be two fibrations. Assume for simplicity that $B,B'$ are simply connected. Let we have morphism of these fibrations, i.e. two continuous maps
$$f\colon E\...

Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence for path-loop fibration over Q\Sigma X (reference request)
Related to the question here, here is another question. Consider the kernel of the map $H_*(QY;Z/p)\rightarrow H_{*+1}(Q\Sigma Y;Z/p)$. restricted to
$PH_*(QY)$, and let's say $Y$ itself is a ...

On the multiplicative structure in spectral sequences.
Let $f\colon X \rightarrow Y$ be a continuous map of sufficiently nice
topological spaces (say, smooth manifolds). Let ${\cal F}=(\dots\rightarrow
F_i \rightarrow F_{i+1}\to \dots)$ be a bounded ...
