Cohomology class of fiber bundle
Suppose I have a fiber bundle $\pi: E\rightarrow B$, with fiber $F$, such that the Serre spectral sequence on cohomology is immediately degenerate. In other words, $H^*(E)=H^*(B)\otimes H^*(F)$.
I ...

Loop-space functor on cohomology
For a pointed space $X$ and an Abelian group $G$, the loop-space functor induces a homomorphism $\omega:H^n(X,G)\to H^{n-1}(\Omega X,G)$.
More concretely, $\omega$ is given by the Puppe sequence
$$\...

Differentials in the Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence for a bounded generalized cohomology theory
$\newcommand{\res}{\mathrm{res}}$Let $X$ be a connected finite CW complex, and let $E$ be a bounded spectrum. For simplicity, let me assume that it has homotopy groups concentrated in degrees 0,1,2.

Why should we study the total complex?
Recall that for every double complex $C_{\bullet,\bullet}$, there is a canonical construction called the total complex $\operatorname{Tot}(C_{\bullet,\bullet})$ associated to it. This complex can be ...

Spectral sequence in Adams's book, Theorem 8.2
I am having trouble in understanding Theorem 8.2 of Adams's book and the application afterwards of constructing the spectral sequence. I think I should prove somehow that the spectral sequence in this ...

Explicit description of the Leray spectral sequence with compact supports for a fibration
Consider a locally trivial fibration $f: E \to B$ with fiber $F = \mathbb{C}^n$. The Leray spectral sequence with compact supports is
$$ E_2: H^p_c(B, \underline{H^q_c(F)}) \implies H^{p+q}_c(E). $$

Does Kudo's transgression theorem still hold when the coefficient is ℤ/pⁿℤ?
I am trying to compute a Lyndon–Hochschild–Serre spectral sequence with coefficient $\mathbb{Z}/p^2\mathbb{Z}$, where $p$ is an odd prime, and Kudo's transgression theorem looks like a good tool for ...

Cohomology ring $H^*(BG,\mathbb{Z}_2)$ for $G=\mathbb{Z}_2\ltimes B^2\mathbb{Z}^2$
$$
\newcommand{\Z}{\mathbb{Z}}
$$
Consider the group $G=\Z_2\ltimes B^2\Z^2$ where $\Z_2$ acts on $\Z^2$ by interchanging the two factors of $\Z^2$, hence $\Z_2$ also acts on the Eilenberg-MacLane ...

Borel's transgression theorem for spectral sequences
My question is about part of the Borel Transgression Theorem on spectral sequences, translated from [1, Theorem 13.1] (see also [2] for a translated version of the whole paper):
Let $B^\bullet := \...

Cohomology of BG, G non-connected Lie group, and spectral sequence relating to classifying space of connected component of the identity
Suppose $G$ is a Lie group, with $\pi_0(G)$ not necessarily finite, but might as well assume $G_0$, the connected component of the identity, is compact.
In the case that $\pi_0(G)$ is finite, then we ...

Cohomology of doubly pinched torus via spectral sequences
Let $f:T^2\to Y$ be a resolution of singularities where $Y$ is a torus with two "pinched" points (or, if you prefer, two copies of $\mathbb{P}^1$ meeting at two points). I'm interested in ...

Differentials in spectral sequences and Massey products
Consider a multiplicative spectral sequence such as the cohomological Serre spectral. It is known that differentials will satisfy a Leibniz rule. Is there a clean statement involving differentials and ...

Functoriality of Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence - Reference Request

Computation of mod p homology of $MSU$
I am trying to proof Novikov theorem
\begin{equation}
MSU_*\otimes \mathbb Z[\frac 1 2] \cong \mathbb Z[\frac 1 2][y_2, y_4, \ldots],\quad \deg y_i = 2i.
\end{equation}
This can be proved by using ...

Is there a systematic way to "bound" the $d_n$'s of ASS's by "pairing" them with elements in the $n$-line of the $E_2$ of the ASS of the sphere?
All details in the question are for the case $p=2$ though I expect the answer shouldn't be that different for odd primes.
Adams showed (i think it was him) the following statement:
The element $...
