General information on the group

  • L2(8).3 is a group of order 1512.
  • The group order factors as 23 · 33 · 7.
  • The group is defined by Group([(1,2)(3,5)(4,6)(7,9),(2,3,4)(6,7,8)]).
  • It is non-abelian.
  • It has 2-Rank 3.
  • The centre of a Sylow 2-subgroup has rank 3.
  • Its Sylow 2-subgroup has a unique conjugacy class of maximal elementary abelian subgroups, which is of rank 3.


Structure of the cohomology ring

This cohomology ring is isomorphic to the cohomology ring of a subgroup, namely H*(SmallGroup(168,43); GF(2)).

General information

  • The cohomology ring is of dimension 3 and depth 3.
  • The depth coincides with the Duflot bound.
  • The Poincaré series is
    ( − 1)·((1  −  t  +  t2  −  t3  +  t4) · (1  −  t2  +  t4))

    ( − 1  +  t)3 · (1  +  t  +  t2) · (1  +  t  +  t2  +  t3  +  t4  +  t5  +  t6)
  • The a-invariants are -∞,-∞,-∞,-3. They were obtained using the filter regular HSOP of the Hilbert-Poincaré test.
  • The filter degree type of any filter regular HSOP is [-1, -2, -3, -3].

Data used for the Hilbert-Poincaré test

  • We proved completion in degree 12 using the Hilbert-Poincaré criterion.
  • The completion test was perfect: It applied in the last degree in which a generator or relation was found.
  • The following is a filter regular homogeneous system of parameters:
    1. c_3_0, an element of degree 3
    2. c_4_0, an element of degree 4
    3. c_7_1, an element of degree 7
  • The above filter regular HSOP forms a Duflot regular sequence.
  • The Raw Filter Degree Type of the filter regular HSOP is [-1, -1, -1, 11].
