A limit approach to group homology.

Abstract: In this paper, we consider for any free presentation

G = F / R

of a group

G

the coinvariance

H_{0} (G, R_{a b}^{o t i m e s n})

of the

n

-th tensor power of the relation module

R_{a b}

and show that the homology group

H_{2 n} (G, m a t h b b Z)

may be identified with the limit of the groups

H_{0} (G, R_{a b}^{o t i m e s n})

, where the limit is taken over the category of these presentations of

G

. We also consider the free Lie ring generated by the relation module

R_{a b}

, in order to relate the limit of the groups

g a m m a_{n} R / [g a m m a_{n} R, F]

to the

n

-torsion subgroup of

H_{2 n} (G, m a t h b b Z)

.
