Restriction preserves explicit low-degree cup products #
Restriction along a subgroup preserves each of the six cup products on explicit continuous cohomology:
res (a ⌣ b) = res a ⌣ res b.
This is the low-degree inhomogeneous form of the naturality of the cup product. On cocycle
representatives it is an equality, not merely an equality modulo coboundaries: restriction is
precomposition with the subgroup inclusion, and the pairing and the translation factor in the cup
formula are unchanged. The six statements below expose that compatibility in every bidegree
(p, q) with p + q ≤ 2.
