Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

It is known that for a prime p ≠ = 2, there is the following natural description of the homology algebra of an Abelian group H*(A, 𝔽p) ≅ Λ(A/p)⊗Γ(pA), and for finitely generated Abelian groups there is the following description of the cohomology algebra of H*(A, 𝔽p) ≅ Λ((A/p))⊗Sym((pA)). It is proved that for p = 2, there are no such descriptions “depending” on A/2 and 2A only. Moreover, natural descriptions of H*(A, 𝔽2) and H*(A, 𝔽2), “depending” on A/2, 2A, and a linear map \( \overline{\beta} \): 2AA/2 are presented. It is also proved that there is a filtration by subfunctors on Hn(A, 𝔽2), whose quotients are Λn−2i(A/2)⊗Γi(2A), and there is a natural filtration on Hn(A, 𝔽2) for finitely generated Abelian groups, whose quotients are Λn−2i((A/2)) ⊗ Symi((2A)).
