The \(\text{mod }p\) cohomology algebras of finite groups with metacyclic Sylow \(p\)-subgroups (Q1360889)

Let \(G\) be a finite group with metacyclic Sylow \(p\)-subgroup \(P\), where \(p\) is an odd prime. The author calculates the mod \(p\) cohomology algebra \(H^*(G)\). He shows \(H^*(G)=H^*(P)\), if \(P\) is a nonsplit metacyclic \(p\)-group, and \(H^*(G)=H^*(NP)\), \(NP\) the normalizer of \(P\) in \(G\), if \(P\) is a split metacyclic \(p\)-group. Using results of Diethelm and Huebschmann about the cohomology algebra of metacyclic \(p\)-groups, the author is then able to describe the cohomology algebra \(H^*(G)\) by generators and relators.
