General information on the group

  • SL(3,4) is a group of order 60480.
  • The group order factors as 26 · 33 · 5 · 7.
  • The group is defined by Group([(2,3,5)(4,7,6)(8,11,17)(9,13,21)(10,15,25)(12,19,32)(14,23,39)(16,27,46)(18,30,51)(20,34,52)(22,37,55)(24,41,56)(26,44,50)(28,48,59)(29,45,47)(31,33,36)(35,54,63)(38,40,43)(42,57,61)(49,53,62),(1,2,4,8,12,20,35)(3,6,9,14,24,42,58)(5,7,10,16,28,49,60)(11,18,31,23,40,56,62)(13,22,38,27,47,59,63)(15,26,45,19,33,52,61)(17,29,50,46,37,48,57)(21,36,51,32,44,34,53)(25,43,55,39,30,41,54)]).
  • It is non-abelian.
  • It has 7-Rank 1.
  • The centre of a Sylow 7-subgroup has rank 1.
  • Its Sylow 7-subgroup has a unique conjugacy class of maximal elementary abelian subgroups, which is of rank 1.


Structure of the cohomology ring

This cohomology ring is isomorphic to the cohomology ring of a subgroup, namely H*(SmallGroup(63,3); GF(7)).

General information

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

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

Ring generators

The cohomology ring has 2 minimal generators of maximal degree 6:

  1. a_5_0, a nilpotent element of degree 5
  2. c_6_0, a Duflot element of degree 6

Ring relations

There is one "obvious" relation:
   a_5_02

Apart from that, there are no relations.

Data used for the Hilbert-Poincaré test

  • We proved completion in degree 6 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_6_0, an element of degree 6
  • The above filter regular HSOP forms a Duflot regular sequence.
  • The Raw Filter Degree Type of the filter regular HSOP is [-1, 5].
