Abstract

Letting G=F/RG=F/R be a finitely-presented group, Hopf's formula expresses the second integral homology of GG in terms of FF and RR. Expanding on previous work, we explain how to find generators of H2(G;Fp)H_2(G;\mathbb{F}_p). The context of the problem, which is related to a conjecture of Quillen, is presented, as well as example calculations.
