Abstract: We consider the Belkale-Kumar cup product $odo{t}_t$ on $H^{\ast }(G/P)$ for a generalized flag variety $G/P$ with parameter $tin{C}^m$, where $m=dim(H^2(G/P))$. For each $tin{C}^m$, we define an associated parabolic subgroup $P_{K}supsetP$. We show that the ring $(H^{\ast }(G/P),odo{t}_t)$ contains a graded subalgebra $A$ isomorphic to $H^{\ast }(P_K/P)$ with the usual cup product, where $P_K$ is a parabolic subgroup associated to the parameter $t$. Further, we prove that $(H^{\ast }(G/P_K),odo{t}_0)$ is the quotient of the ring $(H^{\ast }(G/P),odo{t}_t)$ with respect to the ideal generated by elements of positive degree of $A$. We prove the above results by using basic facts about the Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence for relative Lie algebra cohomology, and most of the paper consists of proving these facts using the original approach of Hochschild and Serre.
