kernel of the mod $2$ Bockstein on the first cohomology group
Let $M$ be a path-connected finite $CW$-complex. Suppose the first integral homology group is $H_1(M;\mathbb{Z})= \mathbb{Z}_2^{\oplus r}\oplus A$ where $r\geq 1$ and $A$ is a finite abelian group of ...

Generalizing the formula between Wu class and the Steenrod square
I know that on the tangent bundle of $M^d$, the corresponding Wu class and the Steenrod square satisfy
$$
Sq^{d-j}(x_j)=u_{d-j} x_j, \text{ for any } x_j \in H^j(M^d;\mathbb Z_2) .
\tag{eq.1}$$
