Cohomology on the centric orbit category of a fusion system
Tom 269 / 2025
Streszczenie
We study the higher derived limits of mod $p$ cohomology on the centric orbit category of a saturated fusion system on a finite $p$-group. It is an open problem whether all such higher limits vanish. This is known in many cases, including for fusion systems realized by a finite group and for many classes of fusion systems which are not so realized. We prove that the higher limits of $H^j$ vanish provided $j \leq p-2$, by showing that the same is true for the contravariant part of a simple Mackey composition factor of $H^j$ under the same conditions.
