Loop-space functor on cohomology
For a pointed space $X$ and an Abelian group $G$, the loop-space functor induces a homomorphism $\omega:H^n(X,G)\to H^{n-1}(\Omega X,G)$.
More concretely, $\omega$ is given by the Puppe sequence
$$\...

Proof of the ''trangression theorem''
Here is what I would call the transgression theorem. Let $X$ be a pointed space and $\Omega X$ its loop space. There are two maps $H_{p}(\Omega X) \to H_{p+1}(X)$ which should be the same. I am ...

Does the cohomology ring of a simply-connected space X determine the cohomology groups of ΩX?
One could try to apply the Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence to the pullback diagram • → X ← •, obtaining a spectral sequence TorH•(X, R)(R, R) => H•(ΩX, R), but ...
