<h4>7.1 Finite groups </h4>

<h5>7.1-1 Naive homology computation for a very small group</h5>

It is possible to compute the low degree (co)homology of a finite group or monoid of small order directly from the bar resolution. The following commands take this approach to computing the fifth integral homology

$H_5(Q_4,\mathbb Z) = \mathbb Z_2\oplus\mathbb Z_2$

of the quaternion group $G=Q_4$ of order $8$.

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> Q:=QuaternionGroup(8);;
gap> B:=BarComplexOfMonoid(Q,6);; 
gap> C:=ContractedComplex(B);;
gap> Homology(C,5);
[ 2, 2 ]

gap> List([0..6],B!.dimension);
[ 1, 7, 49, 343, 2401, 16807, 117649 ]
gap> List([0..6],C!.dimension);
[ 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 4, 102945 ]

</pre></div>

However, this approach is of limited applicability since the bar resolution involves $|G|^k$ free generators in degree $k$. A range of techniques, tailored to specific classes of groups, can be used to compute the (co)homology of larger finite groups.

This naive approach does have the merit of being applicable to arbitrary small monoids. The following calculates the homology in degrees $\le 7$ of a monoid of order 8, the monoid being specified by its multiplication table.

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> T:=[ [ 1, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 4, 1 ],
> [ 1, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 4, 2 ],
> [ 1, 1, 1, 4, 4, 4, 4, 3 ],
> [ 4, 4, 4, 1, 1, 1, 1, 4 ],
> [ 4, 4, 4, 1, 1, 1, 1, 5 ],
> [ 4, 4, 4, 1, 1, 1, 1, 6 ],
> [ 4, 4, 4, 1, 1, 1, 1, 7 ],
> [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ] ];;

[ [ 0 ], [ 2 ], [ ], [ 2 ], [ ], [ 2 ], [ ], [ 2 ] ]

gap> List([0..8],B!.dimension);
[ 1, 7, 49, 343, 2401, 16807, 117649, 823543, 5764801 ]

<h5>7.1-2 A more efficient homology computation</h5>

The following example computes the seventh integral homology

$H_7(M_{23},\mathbb Z) = \mathbb Z_{16}\oplus\mathbb Z_{15}$

and fourth integral cohomomogy

$H^4(M_{24},\mathbb Z) = \mathbb Z_{12}$

of the Mathieu groups $M_{23}$ and $M_{24}$. (Warning: the computation of $H_7(M_{23},\mathbb Z)$ takes a couple of hours to run.)

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> GroupHomology(MathieuGroup(23),7);
[ 16, 3, 5 ]

gap> GroupCohomology(MathieuGroup(24),4);
[ 4, 3 ]

</pre></div>

<a id="X842E93467AD09EC1" name="X842E93467AD09EC1"></a>

<h5>7.1-3 Computation of an induced homology homomorphism</h5>

The following example computes the cokernel

${\rm coker}( H_3(A_7,\mathbb Z) \rightarrow H_3(S_{10},\mathbb Z)) \cong \mathbb Z_2\oplus \mathbb Z_2$

of the degree-3 integral homomogy homomorphism induced by the canonical inclusion $A_7 \rightarrow S_{10}$ of the alternating group on $7$ letters into the symmetric group on $10$ letters. The analogous cokernel with $\mathbb Z_2$ homology coefficients is also computed.

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> G:=SymmetricGroup(10);;
gap> H:=AlternatingGroup(7);;
gap> f:=GroupHomomorphismByFunction(H,G,x->x);;
gap> F:=GroupHomology(f,3);
MappingByFunction( Pcp-group with orders [ 4, 3 ], Pcp-group with orders
[ 2, 2, 4, 3 ], function( x ) ... end )
gap> AbelianInvariants(Range(F)/Image(F));
[ 2, 2 ]

gap> Fmod2:=GroupHomology(f,3,2);;
gap> AbelianInvariants(Range(Fmod2)/Image(Fmod2));
[ 2, 2 ]

</pre></div>

<a id="X8754D2937E6FD7CE" name="X8754D2937E6FD7CE"></a>

<h5>7.1-4 Some other finite group homology computations</h5>

The following example computes the third integral homology of the Weyl group $W=Weyl(E_8)$, a group of order $696729600$.

$H_3(Weyl(E_8),\mathbb Z) = \mathbb Z_2 \oplus \mathbb Z_2 \oplus \mathbb Z_{12}$

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> L:=SimpleLieAlgebra("E",8,Rationals);;
gap> W:=WeylGroup(RootSystem(L));;
gap> Order(W);
696729600
gap> GroupHomology(W,3);
[ 2, 2, 4, 3 ]

</pre></div>

The preceding calculation could be achieved more quickly by noting that $W=Weyl(E_8)$ is a Coxeter group, and by using the associated Coxeter polytope. The following example uses this approach to compute the fourth integral homology of $W$. It begins by displaying the Coxeter diagram of $W$, and then computes

$H_4(Weyl(E_8),\mathbb Z) = \mathbb Z_2 \oplus \mathbb Z_2 \oplus Z_2 \oplus \mathbb Z_2$.

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> D:=[[1,[2,3]],[2,[3,3]],[3,[4,3],[5,3]],[5,[6,3]],[6,[7,3]],[7,[8,3]]];;
gap> CoxeterDiagramDisplay(D);

</pre></div>

The following example computes the sixth mod-$2$ homology of the Sylow $2$-subgroup $Syl_2(M_{24})$ of the Mathieu group $M_{24}$.

$H_6(Syl_2(M_{24}),\mathbb Z_2) = \mathbb Z_2^{143}$

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> GroupHomology(SylowSubgroup(MathieuGroup(24),2),6,2);
[ 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2,
 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2,
 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2,

The following example computes the sixth mod-$2$ homology of the Unitary group $U_3(4)$ of order 312000.

$H_6(U_3(4),\mathbb Z_2) = \mathbb Z_2^{4}$

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> G:=GU(3,4);;
gap> Order(G);
312000
gap> GroupHomology(G,6,2);
[ 2, 2, 2, 2 ]

</pre></div>

The following example constructs the Poincare series

$p(x)=\frac{1}{-x^3+3*x^2-3*x+1}$

for the cohomology $H^\ast(Syl_2(M_{12},\mathbb F_2)$. The coefficient of $x^n$ in the expansion of $p(x)$ is equal to the dimension of the vector space $H^n(Syl_2(M_{12},\mathbb F_2)$. The computation involves Singular's Groebner basis algorithms and the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence.

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> G:=SylowSubgroup(MathieuGroup(12),2);;
gap> P:=PoincareSeriesLHS(G);
(1)/(-x_1^3+3*x_1^2-3*x_1+1)

</pre></div>

The additional following command uses the Poincare series

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> RankHomologyPGroup(G,P,1000);
251000

</pre></div>

to determine that $H_{1000}(Syl_2(M_{12},\mathbb Z)$ is a direct sum of 251000 non-trivial cyclic $2$-groups.

The following example constructs the series

$p(x)=\frac{x^4-x^3+x^2-x+1}{x^6-x^5+x^4-2*x^3+x^2-x+1}$

whose coefficient of $x^n$ is equal to the dimension of the vector space $H^n(M_{11},\mathbb F_2)$ for all $n$ in the range $0\le n\le 14$. The coefficient is not guaranteed correct for $n\ge 15$.

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> PoincareSeriesPrimePart(MathieuGroup(11),2,14);
(x_1^4-x_1^3+x_1^2-x_1+1)/(x_1^6-x_1^5+x_1^4-2*x_1^3+x_1^2-x_1+1)

<h4>7.3 Crystallographic and Almost Crystallographic groups</h4>

The following example computes

$H_5(G,\mathbb Z) = \mathbb Z_2 \oplus \mathbb Z_2$

for the $3$-dimensional crystallographic space group $G$ with Hermann-Mauguin symbol "P62"

<div class="example"><pre>

</pre></div>

The following example computes

$H^5(G,\mathbb Z)= \mathbb Z$

for an almost crystallographic group.

<div class="example"><pre>

<h4>7.4 Arithmetic groups</h4>

$H_6(SL_2({\cal O},\mathbb Z) = \mathbb Z_2 \oplus \mathbb Z_{12}$

for ${\cal O}$ the ring of integers of the number field $\mathbb Q(\sqrt{-2})$.

<h4>7.5 Artin groups</h4>

The following example computes

$H_n(G,\mathbb Z) =\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \mathbb Z &n=0,1,7,8\\ \mathbb Z_2, &n=2,3\\ \mathbb Z_2\oplus \mathbb Z_6, &n=4,6\\ \mathbb Z_3 \oplus \mathbb Z_6,& n=5\\ 0, &n>8 \end{array}\right. $

for $G$ the Artin group of type $E_8$. (Similar commands can be used to compute a resolution and homology of arbitrary Artin monoids and, in thoses cases such as the spherical cases where the $K(\pi,1)$-conjecture is known to hold, the homology is equal to that of the corresponding Artin group.)

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> D:=[[1,[2,3]],[2,[3,3]],[3,[4,3],[5,3]],[5,[6,3]],[6,[7,3]],[7,[8,3]]];;

The Artin group $G$ projects onto the Coxeter group $W$ of type $E_8$. The group $W$ has a natural representation as a group of $8\times 8$ integer matrices.

<h4>7.7 Lie algebra homology and free nilpotent groups</h4>

One method of producting a Lie algebra $L$ from a group $G$ is by forming the direct sum $L(G) = G/\gamma_2G \oplus \gamma_2G/\gamma_3G \oplus \gamma_3G/\gamma_4G \oplus \cdots$ of the quotients of the lower central series $\gamma_1G=G$, $\gamma_{n+1}G=[\gamma_nG,G]$. Commutation in $G$ induces a Lie bracket $L(G)\times L(G) \rightarrow L(G)$.

The homology $H_n(L)$ of a Lie algebra (with trivial coefficients) can be calculated as the homology of the Chevalley-Eilenberg chain complex $C_\ast(L)$. This chain complex is implemented in HAP in the cases where the underlying additive group of $L$ is either finitely generated torsion free or finitely generated of prime exponent $p$. In these two cases the ground ring for the Lie algebra/ Chevalley-Eilenberg complex is taken to be $\mathbb Z$ and $\mathbb Z_p$ respectively.

For example, consider the quotient $G=F/\gamma_8F$ of the free group $F=F(x,y)$ on two generators by eighth term of its lower central series. So $G$ is the free nilpotent group of class 7 on two generators. The following commands compute $H_4(L(G)) = \mathbb Z_2^{77} \oplus \mathbb Z_6^8 \oplus \mathbb Z_{12}^{51} \oplus \mathbb Z_{132}^{11} \oplus \mathbb Z^{2024}$ and show that the fourth homology in this case contains 2-, 3- and 11-torsion. (The commands take an hour or so to complete.)

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> G:=Image(NqEpimorphismNilpotentQuotient(FreeGroup(2),7));;
gap> L:=LowerCentralSeriesLieAlgebra(G);;
gap> h:=LieAlgebraHomology(L,4);;
gap> Collected(h);
[ [ 0, 2024 ], [ 2, 77 ], [ 6, 8 ], [ 12, 51 ], [ 132, 11 ] ]

</pre></div>

For a free nilpotent group $G$ the additive homology $H_n(L(G))$ of the Lie algebra can be computed more quickly in HAP than the integral group homology $H_n(G,\mathbb Z)$. Clearly there are isomorphisms$H_1(G) \cong H_1(L(G)) \cong G_{ab}$ of abelian groups in homological degree $n=1$. Hopf's formula can be used to establish an isomorphism $H_2(G) \cong H_2(L(G))$ also in degree $n=2$. The following two theorems provide further isomorphisms that allow for the homology of a free nilpotent group to be calculated more efficiently as the homology of the associated Lie algebra.

Theorem 1. <a href="chapBib_mj.html#biBkuzmin">[KS98]</a> Let $G$ be a finitely generated free nilpotent group of class 2. Then the integral group homology $H_n(G,\mathbb Z)$ is isomorphic to the integral Lie algebra homology $H_n(L(G),\mathbb Z)$ in each degree $n\ge0$.

Theorem 2. <a href="chapBib_mj.html#biBigusa">[IO01]</a> Let $G$ be a finitely generated free nilpotent group (of any class). Then the integral group homology $H_n(G,\mathbb Z)$ is isomorphic to the integral Lie algebra homology $H_n(L(G),\mathbb Z)$ in degrees $n=0, 1, 2, 3$.

We should remark that experimentation on free nilpotent groups of class $\ge 4$ has not yielded a group for which the isomorphism $H_n(G,\mathbb Z) \cong H_n(L(G),\mathbb G)$ fails. For instance, the isomorphism holds in degree $n=4$ for the free nilpotent group of class 5 on two generators, and for the free nilpotent group of class 2 on four generators:

<h4>7.8 Cohomology with coefficients in a module</h4>

There are various ways to represent a $\mathbb ZG$-module $A$ with action $G\times A \rightarrow A, (g,a)\mapsto \alpha(g,a)$.

One possibility is to use the data type of a $G$-Outer Group which involves three components: an $ActedGroup$ $A$; an $Acting Group$ $G$; a $Mapping$ $(g,a)\mapsto \alpha(g,a)$. The following example uses this data type to compute the cohomology $H^4(G,A) =\mathbb Z_5 \oplus \mathbb Z_{10}$ of the symmetric group $G=S_6$ with coefficients in the integers $A=\mathbb Z$ where odd permutations act non-trivially on $A$.

<div class="example"><pre>
gap> G:=SymmetricGroup(6);;

If $A=\mathbb Z^n$ and $G$ acts as

$G\times A \rightarrow A, (g, v) \mapsto \rho(g)\, v $

where $\rho\colon G\rightarrow Gl_n(\mathbb Z)$ is a (not necessarily faithful) matrix representation of degree $n$ then we can avoid the use of $G$-outer groups and use just the homomorphism $\rho$ instead. The following example uses this data type to compute the cohomology

$H^6(G,A) =\mathbb Z_2 $

and the homology

$H_6(G,A) = 0 $

of the alternating group $G=A_5$ with coefficients in $A=\mathbb Z^5$ where elements of $G$ act on $\mathbb Z^5$ via an irreducible representation.

If $V=K^d$ is a vetor space of dimension $d$ over the field $K=GF(p)$ with $p$ a prime and $G$ acts on $V$ via a homomorphism $\rho\colon G\rightarrow GL_d(K)$ then the homology $H^n(G,V)$ can again be computed without the use of G-outer groups. As an example, the following commands compute

$H^4(GL(3,2),V) =K^2$

where $K=GF(2)$ and $GL(3,2)$ acts with its natural action on $V=K^3$.

It can be computationally difficult to compute resolutions for large finite groups. But the $p$-primary part of the homology can be computed using resolutions of Sylow $p$-subgroups. This approach is used in the following example that computes the $2$-primary part

$H_{2}(G,\mathbb Z)_{(2)} = \mathbb Z_2 \oplus \mathbb Z_2\oplus \mathbb Z_2$

of the degree 2 integral homology of the Rubik's cube group $G$. This group has order $43252003274489856000$.

<h4>7.9 Cohomology as a functor of the first variable</h4>

Suppose given a group homomorphism $f\colon G_1\rightarrow G_2$ and a $G_2$-module $A$. Then $A$ is naturally a $G_1$-module with action via $f$, and there is an induced cohomology homomorphism $H^n(f,A)\colon H^n(G_2,A) \rightarrow H^n(G_1,A)$.

<h4>7.10 Cohomology as a functor of the second variable and the long exact coefficient sequence</h4>

$ \rightarrow H^n(G,A) \rightarrow H^n(G,B) \rightarrow H^n(G,C) \rightarrow H^{n+1}(G,A) \rightarrow $ .

Consider the symmetric group $G=S_4$ and the sequence $ \mathbb Z_4 \rightarrowtail \mathbb Z_8 \twoheadrightarrow \mathbb Z_2$ of trivial $\mathbb ZG$-modules. The following commands compute the induced cohomology homomorphism

<h4>7.12 Cohomology rings of finite fundamental groups of 3-manifolds
</h4>

A spherical 3-manifold is a 3-manifold arising as the quotient $S^3/\Gamma$ of the 3-sphere $S^3$ by a finite subgroup $\Gamma$ of $SO(4)$ acting freely as rotations. The geometrization conjecture, proved by Grigori Perelman, implies that every closed connected 3-manifold with a finite fundamental group is homeomorphic to a spherical 3-manifold.

A spherical 3-manifold $S^3/\Gamma$ has finite fundamental group isomorphic to $\Gamma$. This fundamental group is one of:

<ul>
<li>$\Gamma=C_m=\langle x\ |\ x^m\rangle$ (cyclic fundamental group)

</li>
<li>$\Gamma=C_m\times \langle x,y \ |\ xyx^{-1}=y^{-1}, x^{2^k}=y^n \rangle$ for integers $k, m\ge 1, n\ge 2$ and $m$ coprime to $2n$ (prism manifold case)

</li>
<li>$\Gamma= C_m\times \langle x,y, z \ |\ (xy)^2=x^2=y^2, zxz^{-1}=y, zyz^{-1}=xy, z^{3^k}=1\rangle $ for integers $k,m\ge 1$ and $m$ coprime to 6 (tetrahedral case)

</li>
<li>$\Gamma=C_m\times\langle x,y\ |\ (xy)^2=x^3=y^4\rangle $ for $m\ge 1$ coprime to 6 (octahedral case)

</li>
<li>$\Gamma=C_m\times \langle x,y\ |\ (xy)^2=x^3=y^5\rangle $ for $m\ge 1$ coprime to 30 (icosahedral case).

</li>
</ul>
This list of cases is taken from the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_3-manifold">Wikipedia pages</a>. The group $\Gamma$ has periodic cohomology since it acts on a sphere. The cyclic group has period 2 and in the other four cases it has period 4. (Recall that in general a finite group $G$ has periodic cohomology of period $n$ if there is an element $u\in H^n(G,\mathbb Z)$ such that the cup product $-\ \cup u\colon H^k(G,\mathbb Z) \rightarrow H^{k+n}(G,\mathbb Z)$ is an isomorphism for all $k\ge 1$. It can be shown that $G$ has periodic cohomology of period $n$ if and only if $H^{n}(G,\mathbb Z)=\mathbb Z_{|G|}$.)

The cohomology of the cyclic group is well-known, and the cohomology of a direct product can be obtained from that of the factors using the Kunneth formula.

In the icosahedral case with $m=1$ the following commands yield $$H^\ast(\Gamma,\mathbb Z)=Z[t]/(120t=0)$$ with generator $t$ of degree 4. The final command demonstrates that a periodic resolution is used in the computation.

<h4>7.13 Explicit cocycles </h4>

Given a $\mathbb ZG$-resolution $R_\ast$ and a $\mathbb ZG$-module $A$, one defines an $n$-cocycle to be a $\mathbb ZG$-homomorphism $f\colon R_n \rightarrow A$ for which the composite homomorphism $fd_{n+1}\colon R_{n+1}\rightarrow A$ is zero. If $R_\ast$ happens to be the standard bar resolution (i.e. the cellular chain complex of the nerve of the group $G$ considered as a one object category) then the free $\mathbb ZG$-generators of $R_n$ are indexed by $n$-tuples $(g_1 | g_2 | \ldots | g_n)$ of elements $g_i$ in $G$. In this case we say that the $n$-cocycle is a standard n-cocycle and we think of it as a set-theoretic function

$f \colon G \times G \times \cdots \times G \longrightarrow A$

satisfying a certain algebraic cocycle condition. Bearing in mind that a standard $n$-cocycle really just assigns an element $f(g_1, \ldots ,g_n) \in A$ to an $n$-simplex in the nerve of $G$ , the cocycle condition is a very natural one which states that $f$ must vanish on the boundary of a certain $(n+1)$-simplex. For $n=2$ the condition is that a $2$-cocycle $f(g_1,g_2)$ must satisfy

$g.f(h,k) + f(g,hk) = f(gh,k) + f(g,h)$

for all $g,h,k \in G$. This equation is explained by the following picture.

<img src="images/cocycle.png" align="center" height="200" alt="2-cocycle equation"/>

The definition of a cocycle clearly depends on the choice of $\mathbb ZG$-resolution $R_\ast$. However, the cohomology group $H^n(G,A)$, which is a group of equivalence classes of $n$-cocycles, is independent of the choice of $R_\ast$.

There are some occasions when one needs explicit examples of standard cocycles. For instance:

<ul>
<li>Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $0$. The group algebra $k(G)$, and the algebra $F(G)$ of functions $d_g\colon G\rightarrow k, h\rightarrow d_{g,h}$, are both Hopf algebras. The tensor product $F(G) \otimes k(G)$ also admits a Hopf algebra structure known as the quantum double $D(G)$. A twisted quantum double $D_f(G)$ was introduced by R. Dijkraaf, V. Pasquier & P. Roche <a href="chapBib_mj.html#biBdpr">[DPR91]</a>. The twisted double is a quasi-Hopf algebra depending on a $3$-cocycle $f\colon G\times G\times G\rightarrow k$. The multiplication is given by $(d_g \otimes x)(d_h \otimes y) = d_{gx,xh}\beta_g(x,y)(d_g \otimes xy)$ where $\beta_a $ is defined by $\beta_a(h,g) = f(a,h,g) f(h,h^{-1}ah,g)^{-1} f(h,g,(hg)^{-1}ahg)$ . Although the algebraic structure of $D_f(G)$ depends very much on the particular $3$-cocycle $f$, representation-theoretic properties of $D_f(G)$ depend only on the cohomology class of $f$.

</li>
<li>An explicit $2$-cocycle $f\colon G\times G\rightarrow A$ is needed to construct the multiplication $(a,g)(a',g') = (a + g\cdot a' + f(g,g'), gg')$ in the extension a group $G$ by a $\mathbb ZG$-module $A$ determined by the cohomology class of $f$ in $H^2(G,A)$. See 6.7.
