Abstract
The cohomology of matrix groups with entries in fields or infinite rings is well studied. In this talk we will move to matrix entries in Z/pn for n>1 and study the mod p cohomology of the Sylow p-subgroups S_n of SL_2(Z/pn), presenting the results from my PhD thesis. In the first part of the talk we will explore important characteristics of S_n. Then we will fix p=3 and work through the computation of their mod 3 cohomology by using the Lyndon-Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence. Finally there will be a short discussion about how this fits into the computation of H*(SL_2(Z/pn),F_p).
