Homology of cyclic groups with trivial coefficients

Let GG be a cyclic group of order nn and let AA be a trivial GG-module.

Cyclic-group homology conjecture.

Hn1λ(G,A){A/2A,n0(mod2),Ker(φn:AA),n1(mod2),\operatorname{H}_{n-1}^{\lambda}(G,A)\cong \begin{cases} A/2A, & n\equiv 0\pmod{2},\\ \operatorname{Ker}(\varphi_n:A\to A), & n\equiv 1\pmod{2}, \end{cases}

where φn(a)=na\varphi_n(a)=na for aAa\in A.

This gives an explicit description of the (n1)(n-1)-st exterior homology group for cyclic groups with trivial coefficients, separating the even- and odd-order cases. The supplied material does not indicate whether this assertion has been proved or remains open.
