Bockstein homomorphisms for Hochschild cohomology of group algebras and of block algebras of finite groups

Abstract

AbstractWe give an explicit approach for Bockstein homomorphisms of the Hochschild cohomology of a group algebra and of a block algebra of a finite group and we show some properties. To give explicit definitions for these maps we use an additive decomposition and a product formula for the Hochschild cohomology of group algebras given by Siegel and Witherspoon in 1999.
