Decomposition of finite abelian groups of even order if there is an involution

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group and $\sigma :G\rightarrow G$ an automorphism of order two ($\sigma\circ \sigma =id_G$). Denote by $F$ and $A$ the subgroups of fixed and anti-fixed points of $\sigma$ …

Projective representations of a finite abelian group

Projective representations of a group $G$ are classified by the second group cohomology $H^2(G,U(1))$. If $G$ is finite and abelian, it is isomorphic to the direct product of cyclic groups $$ G\cong C …

Are these two natural cohomology classes of a manifold constructed from a 1-cochain and a gr...

Let $X$ be a manifold, $G$ and $A$ finite abelian groups and $\epsilon \in H^2(G,A)$ a group cohomology class (for the moment I am assuming there is no action of $G$ on $A$). Given $\alpha \in H^1(X,G …

Cohomology of the classifying space of a semidirect product, and some specific examples with...

Let $G$ and $A$ be finite abelian groups and $\rho :G \rightarrow \text{Aut}(G)$ a representation of $G$. We can form the semidirect product $A\rtimes _{\rho} G$. Just to agree on the notation this is …

Trivial group cohomology induces trivial cohomology of subgroups

From the answer to another question I asked (Projective representations of a finite abelian group) and from the structure theorem of finite abelian groups it follows that if $A$ is a finite abelian gr …

Quadratic refinements of a bilinear form on finite abelian groups

$\DeclareMathOperator\Hom{Hom}$Let $A$ be a finite abelian group and $\text{Sym}(A)$ the (abelian) group of symmetric bilinear forms over $A$ valued in $\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}$. A quadratic function on …
