Markl, M.

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal, Tome 57 (2007) no. 1, pp. 473-503

Abstract (VO)

The aim of this note, which raises more questions than it answers, is to study natural operations acting on the cohomology of various types of algebras. It contains a lot of very surprising partial results and examples.
