| Description: |
Summarizes the literature about the ring structure of the mod 2 cohomology of sporadic simple groups. This book offers background material on the relevant constructions from algebraic topology, and on local geometries from group theory. |
| Synopsis: |
For each of the 26 sporadic finite simple groups, the authors construct a 2-completed classifying space using a homotopy decomposition in terms of classifying spaces of suitable 2-local subgroups. This construction leads to an additive decomposition of the mod 2 group cohomology. The authors also summarize the current status of knowledge in the literature about the ring structure of the mod 2 cohomology of sporadic simple groups. |
