We give an algebraic proof for the result of Eilenberg and Mac Lane that the second cohomology group of a simplicial group G can be computed as a quotient of a fibre product involving the first two homotopy groups and the first Postnikov invariant of G. Our main tool is the theory of crossed module extensions of groups.

We show that for every injective continuous map f: S^2 --> R^3 there are four distinct points in the image of f such that the convex hull is a tetrahedron with the property that two opposite edges have the same length and the other four edges are als o of equal length. This result represents a partial result for the topological Borsuk problem for R^3. Our proof of the geometrical claim, via Fadell-Husseini index theory, provides an instance where arguments based on group cohomology with integer coefficients yield results that cannot be accessed using only field coefficients.
We study the homotopy type of the space of the unitary group $operatorname{U}_1(C^ast_u(|mathbb{Z}^n|))$ of the uniform Roe algebra $C^ast_u(|mathbb{Z}^n|)$ of $mathbb{Z}^n$. We show that the stabilizing map $operatorname{U}_1(C^ast_u(|mathbb{Z}^n|)) tooperatorname{U}_infty(C^ast_u(|mathbb{Z}^n|))$ is a homotopy equivalence. Moreover, when $n=1,2$, we determine the homotopy type of $operatorname{U}_1(C^ast_u(|mathbb{Z}^n|))$, which is the product of the unitary group $operatorname{U}_1(C^ast(|mathbb{Z}^n|))$ (having the homotopy type of $operatorname{U}_infty(mathbb{C})$ or $mathbb{Z}times Boperatorname{U}_infty(mathbb{C})$ depending on the parity of $n$) of the Roe algebra $C^ast(|mathbb{Z}^n|)$ and rational Eilenberg--MacLane spaces.
In this paper we prove some general results on Leibniz 2-cocycles for simple Leibniz algebras. Applying these results we establish the triviality of the second Leibniz cohomology for a simple Leibniz algebra with coefficients in itself, whose assoc iated Lie algebra is isomorphic to $mathfrak{sl}_2$.
We show that if an inclusion of finite groups H < G of index prime to p induces a homeomorphism of mod p cohomology varieties, or equivalently an F-isomorphism in mod p cohomology, then H controls p-fusion in G, if p is odd. This generalizes classica l results of Quillen who proved this when H is a Sylow p-subgroup, and furthermore implies a hitherto difficult result of Mislin about cohomology isomorphisms. For p=2 we give analogous results, at the cost of replacing mod p cohomology with higher chromatic cohomology theories. The results are consequences of a general algebraic theorem we prove, that says that isomorphisms between p-fusion systems over the same finite p-group are detected on elementary abelian p-groups if p odd and abelian 2-groups of exponent at most 4 if p=2.
Let $G=SU(2)$ and let $Omega G$ denote the space of based loops in SU(2). We explicitly compute the $R(G)$-module structure of the topological equivariant $K$-theory $K_G^*(Omega G)$ and in particular show that it is a direct product of copies of $K^ *_G(pt) cong R(G)$. (We intend to describe in detail the $R(G)$-algebra (i.e. product) structure of $K^*_G(Omega G)$ in a forthcoming companion paper.) Our proof uses the geometric methods for analyzing loop spaces introduced by Pressley and Segal (and further developed by Mitchell). However, Pressley and Segal do not explicitly compute equivariant $K$-theory and we also need further analysis of the spaces involved since we work in the equivariant setting. With this in mind, we have taken this opportunity to expand on the original exposition of Pressley-Segal in the hope that in doing so, both our results and theirs would be made accessible to a wider audience.
