General information on the group

  • SymmetricGroup(8) is a group of order 40320.
  • The group order factors as 27 · 32 · 5 · 7.
  • The group is defined by Group([(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8),(1,2)]).
  • It is non-abelian.
  • It has 2-Rank 4.
  • The centre of a Sylow 2-subgroup has rank 1.
  • Its Sylow 2-subgroup has 5 conjugacy classes of maximal elementary abelian subgroups, which are of rank 3, 3, 4, 4 and 4, respectively.


Structure of the cohomology ring

The computation was based on 3 stability conditions for H*(SmallGroup(384,5602); GF(2)).

General information

  • The cohomology ring is of dimension 4 and depth 3.
  • The depth exceeds the Duflot bound, which is 1.
  • The Poincaré series is
    1  +  2·t2  +  t3  +  3·t4  +  3·t5  +  4·t6  +  4·t7  +  4·t8  +  3·t9  +  3·t10  +  3·t11  +  t12  +  2·t13  +  t15

  • The a-invariants are -∞,-∞,-∞,-10,-4. 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, -4, -4].
