Dear GAP forum,
This is probably something short and simple but I am having difficulty
figuring it out. How do I calculate the group of 2-cocycles for the
trivial group action? Specifically, given finite groups G and A, with
A abelian, what's a short command or snippet of code that will output
the group of 2-cocycles for the trivial action of G on A?
I see that GAP has a TwoCocycles function, but I couldn't figure out
how to specify the trivial action if G and A are pre-specified.
Also, I am interested in actual 2-cocycles that can be treated as
functions, and not just in the second cohomology group.
Thank you,
Vipul Naik
