Cohomology of finite groups without homological algebra

Abstract

We prove explicit and elementary formulas for the group homology and cohomology of a finite group with coefficients in any module. We describe in elementary terms the cohomology algebra H*(G,k) as a graded algebra for a finite group G and a commutative ring k.
