Group homology of a finite cyclic group #
Let k be a commutative ring, G a group and A a k-linear G-representation. Given
endomorphisms φ, ψ : A ⟶ A such that φ ∘ ψ = ψ ∘ φ = 0, denote by Chains(A, φ, ψ) the
periodic chain complex ... ⟶ A --φ--> A --ψ--> A --φ--> A --ψ--> A ⟶ 0.
When G is finite and generated by g : G, then P := Chains(k[G], N, ρ(g) - Id) (with ρ the
left regular representation) is a projective resolution of k as a trivial representation.
In this file we show that for A : Rep k G, (A ⊗ P)_G is isomorphic to
Chains(A, N, ρ_A(g) - Id) as a complex of k-modules, and hence the homology of this complex
computes group homology.
