TauCeti.RepresentationTheory.Homological.GroupHomology.LowDegree

Group homology in degrees zero and one #

Complements to Mathlib's Mathlib.RepresentationTheory.Homological.GroupHomology.LowDegree, which identifies H₀(G, A) with the coinvariants of A, and H₁(G, A) with Gᵃᵇ ⊗ A for trivial coefficients A.

Main results #

Two elements of A have the same class in H₀(G, A) exactly when their difference lies in the augmentation submodule Representation.Coinvariants.ker A.ρ, the kernel of the projection to the coinvariants.

First homology of a divisible group. If every element of G is an m-th power and multiplication by m is zero on the trivial representation A, then H₁(G, A) = Gᵃᵇ ⊗ A vanishes.
