Homological functors on modules (Tor, Ext, etc.) in associative algebras (16E30) Differential graded algebras and applications (associative algebraic aspects) (16E45) Homology and cohomology of homogeneous spaces of Lie groups (57T15) Equivariant algebraic topology of manifolds (57R91) Applications of Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequences (57T35)
Abstract: We prove that within a natural class of E_3-algebras, the graded Tor group induced by a span of E_3-algebra maps carries a functorial commutative graded algebra structure generalizing the classical structure when the algebras are genuine commutative differential graded algebras. As a topological corollary, Munkholm's Eilenberg--Moore collapse result for pullbacks of spaces with polynomial cohomology is enhanced to a ring isomorphism. New applications compute the Borel cohomology rings of homogeneous spaces and singular cohomology rings of biquotients with minimal restrictions on coefficient rings; existing results on the singular cohomology rings of free loop spaces and (generalized) homogeneous spaces are respectively recovered and strengthened.
