Abstract

An algorithm for calculating a set ofgenerators ofrepresentative 2-cocycles on semidirect product offinite abelian groups is constructed, in light ofthe theory over cocyclic matrices developed by Horadam and de Launey in [7],[8]. The method involves some homological perturbation techniques [3],[1], in the homological correspondent to the work which Grabmeier and Lambe described in [12] from the viewpoint ofcohomology . Examples ofexplicit computations over all dihedral groups D 4t are given, with aid of Mathematica.
