Steenrod operations on the Chow ring of a classifying space (Q2568291)

The author uses the Steenrod algebra to study the Chow ring CH*BG of the classifying space of an algebraic group \(G\). The author describes the localization property which relates a given \(G\) to its elementary abelian subgroup, and gives some applications for a number of particular cases, namely symmetric groups and Chevalley groups. It turns out that the Chow rings of these groups are completely determined by the abelian subgroups and their fusion.
