The Tor description conjecture for cohomology of Witt groups
The Tor description conjecture for cohomology of Witt groups
Let be a field with , so that , and let be the associated -group. Let be the -invariants of the central extension defining . Choose degree-two polynomial generators with , and let be the corresponding permanent cocycles in bidegree . The Tor description conjecture. Up to filtration, there is an isomorphism of algebras
This conjecture describes the cohomology of a -group in terms of the Eilenberg–Moore spectral sequence associated with its central extension. The source states that it has been verified for all examples known to the authors, but does not establish it in general.
