In mathematics, group cohomology is a set of mathematical tools used to study groups using cohomology theory, a technique from algebraic topology. Analogous to group representations, group cohomology looks at the group actions of a group G in an associated G-module M to elucidate the properties of the group.

Finitely generated subgroups of a product of free groups
Regarding your first question, the answer is 'yes'. Consider an arbitrary direct product of free groups $\prod_\alpha F_\alpha$ and $H$ a finitely generated subgroup. Then $H$ is residually free. It …

Presentations of superperfect groups
For $M$ a closed, connected, orientable 3-manifold, it's well known that the existence of a Heegaard splitting for $M$ implies that the fundamental group $\pi_1M$ admits a balanced presentation (i.e. …
