Characteristic classes of symmetric group $S_4$
For the symmetric group $S_3$, it is classically known that \begin{equation} H^*(S_3;\mathbb{Z})\cong \mathbb{Z}[x,y]/(2x,6y,x^2-3y), \end{equation} where $|x|=2$ and $|y|=4$. Moreover, $x$ can be ...

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}(\...
