Abstract:

Well-known techniques allow one to construct a (co-) homology theory relative to a variety. After two paragraphs which discuss the modules to be considered and the construction of the (co-) homology groups, we come to our main homological result, namely that the theory is not always equivalent to a Tor or Ext. In the fourth paragraph we prove our main group-theoretic result; two covering groups of a finite group generate the same variety “up to exponent". Finally we produce a restricted version of the Künneth formula.
