Tate Cohomology Group - Definition

Definition

If G is a finite group and A a G-module, then there is a natural map N from H0(G,A) to H0(G,A) taking a representative a to Σ g(a) (the sum over all G-conjugates of a). The Tate cohomology groups are defined by

  • for n≥ 1.
  • quotient of H0(G,A) by norms
  • quotient of norm 0 elements of H0(G,A) by principal norm 0 elements
  • for n≤ −2.

Famous quotes containing the word definition:

    The man who knows governments most completely is he who troubles himself least about a definition which shall give their essence. Enjoying an intimate acquaintance with all their particularities in turn, he would naturally regard an abstract conception in which these were unified as a thing more misleading than enlightening.
    William James (1842–1910)

    It is very hard to give a just definition of love. The most we can say of it is this: that in the soul, it is a desire to rule; in the spirit, it is a sympathy; and in the body, it is but a hidden and subtle desire to possess—after many mysteries—what one loves.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    According to our social pyramid, all men who feel displaced racially, culturally, and/or because of economic hardships will turn on those whom they feel they can order and humiliate, usually women, children, and animals—just as they have been ordered and humiliated by those privileged few who are in power. However, this definition does not explain why there are privileged men who behave this way toward women.
    Ana Castillo (b. 1953)
