Ring structure

The cohomology ring has 5 generators:

There is one minimal relation:

This minimal generating set constitutes a Gröbner basis for the relations ideal.


Completion information

This cohomology ring was obtained from a calculation out to degree 8. The cohomology ring approximation is stable from degree 2 onwards, and Benson's tests detect stability from degree 4 onwards.

This cohomology ring has dimension 4 and depth 4. Here is a homogeneous system of parameters:

The first 4 terms h1, h2, h3, h4 form a regular sequence of maximum length.

The first 3 terms h1, h2, h3 form a complete Duflot regular sequence. That is, their restrictions to the greatest central elementary abelian subgroup form a regular sequence of maximal length.

Data for Benson's test:


Koszul information

A basis for R/(h1, h2, h3, h4) is as follows.
