Review text

A constructive approach for the computation of resolutions and for cohomology and homology computations for any finite \(p\)-group is presented here. The resolutions are constructed as vector spaces over \(\mathbb{F}_p\) (the field with \(p\) elements) and are as small as the minimal resolution of \(\mathbb{F}_p\) over an elementary Abelian \(p\)-group of the same order as the group \(G\) under study. The used algorithm is of a recursive nature and can be applied naturally to \(p\)-groups \(G\) given as a polynomial perturbation of the elementary Abelian group. The implementations are based on the development of algebraic data structures. Applications to calculating functional cocycles are given. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0961.00017].
