General information on the group

  • Sym10 is a group of order 3628800.
  • The group order factors as 28 · 34 · 52 · 7.
  • The group is defined by Group([(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10),(1,2)]).
  • It is non-abelian.
  • It has 5-Rank 2.
  • The centre of a Sylow 5-subgroup has rank 2.
  • Its Sylow 5-subgroup has a unique conjugacy class of maximal elementary abelian subgroups, which is of rank 2.


Structure of the cohomology ring

This cohomology ring is isomorphic to the cohomology ring of a subgroup, namely H*(SmallGroup(800,1191); GF(5)).

General information

  • The cohomology ring is of dimension 2 and depth 2.
  • The depth coincides with the Duflot bound.
  • The Poincaré series is
    (1  −  t  +  t2) · (1  −  t  +  t2  −  t3  +  t4) · (1  −  t  +  t2  −  t3  +  t4  −  t5  +  t6) · (1  +  t  −  t3  −  t4  −  t5  +  t7  +  t8)

    ( − 1  +  t)2 · (1  +  t2)2 · (1  +  t4)2 · (1  +  t8)
  • The a-invariants are -∞,-∞,-2. 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, -2].

Ring generators

The cohomology ring has 4 minimal generators of maximal degree 16:

  1. a_7_0, a nilpotent element of degree 7
  2. c_8_0, a Duflot element of degree 8
  3. a_15_1, a nilpotent element of degree 15
  4. c_16_1, a Duflot element of degree 16

Ring relations

There are 2 "obvious" relations:
   a_7_02, a_15_12

Apart from that, there are no relations.

Data used for the Hilbert-Poincaré test

  • We proved completion in degree 22 using the Hilbert-Poincaré criterion.
  • However, the last relation was already found in degree 0 and the last generator in degree 16.
  • The following is a filter regular homogeneous system of parameters:
    1. c_8_0, an element of degree 8
    2. c_16_1, an element of degree 16
  • The above filter regular HSOP forms a Duflot regular sequence.
  • The Raw Filter Degree Type of the filter regular HSOP is [-1, -1, 22].
