A branch of algebraic topology concerning the study of cocycles and coboundaries. It is in some sense a dual theory to homology theory. This tag can be further specialized by using it in conjunction with the tags group-cohomology, etale-cohomology, sheaf-cohomology, galois-cohomology, lie-algebra-cohomology, motivic-cohomology, equivariant-cohomology, ...

Low dimensional integral cohomology of $BPSO(4n)$
Gawedzki and I have investigated this question for all compact simple Lie groups using the descent of multiplicative bundle gerbes from simply connected covers to quotients by subgroups of the center: …

Interpretation of the monomorphism $H^2(\pi_1(X),\mathbb{Z}) \rightarrow H^2(X,\mathbb{Z})$
If $X$ has a universal cover $\widetilde{X}$, then $\widetilde X$ is a prinicpal $\pi_1(X)$-bundle over $X$. Suppose
$$
A \to E \to \pi_1(X)
$$
is a central extension. Then, the corresponding class in …

Connection Transformation Formula; Degree 3 Cech Cohomology
The equality follows directly from the definition of a connection, and is independent of the context of lifting structure groups, or degree three cohomology. …

Continuous cohomology of semi-simple Lie group
For $K=G$ in the compact case, this relative Lie algebra cohomology is identically zero.
A good place to look is Stasheff's "Continuous cohomology of groups and classifying spaces". …

Group Extensions and Line Bundles on $BG$
Your line bundle $L$ over $BG$ can be seen as a $G$-equivariant line bundle over a point. That is, up to isomorphism, just a continuous group homomorphism $f:G \to \mathbb{C}^{\times}$. Try to lift $f …

Why do gerbes live in H^2?
The point is that there is an isomorphism
$$
H^1(X,B\mathbb{C}^\times) = H^2(X,\mathbb{C}^\times),
$$
which explains the relation to the second cohomology group. … All this is very nicely explained in Gajer's Inventiones paper "Geometry of Deligne cohomology". …
