The Wells exact sequence for the automorphism group of a group extension. (Q615817): Difference between revisions

Let \(\mathcal E\colon N\rightarrowtail G\twoheadrightarrow Q\) be a group extension. In this paper it is proved that the Wells map associated to \(\mathcal E\) [defined by \textit{Ch. Wells}, Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 155, 189-194 (1971; Zbl 0221.20054); see also \textit{D. J. S. Robinson}, Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 71, 46-80 (1982; Zbl 0496.20038)] is a derivation.
