Properties
If
is a short exact sequence of G-modules, then we get the usual long exact sequence of Tate cohomology groups:
If A is an induced G module then all Tate cohomology groups of A vanish.
The zeroth Tate cohomology group of A is
- (Fixed points of G on A)/(Obvious fixed points of G acting on A)
where by the "obvious" fixed point we mean those of the form Σ g(a). In other words, the zeroth cohomology group in some sense describes the non-obvious fixed points of G acting on A.
The Tate cohomology groups are characterized by the three properties above.

Famous quotes containing the word properties:
“A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.”
—John Locke (16321704)
