Parametrized symmetric groups and the second homology of a group

S. Sinchuk

Chebyshev Laboratory, St. Petersburg State University, Department of Mathematics and Mechanics

Abstract: The notion of a symmetric group parametrized by elements of a group is introduced. It is shown that this group is an extension of a subgroup of the wreath product $G \wr S_n$ by $\mathrm{H}_2(G, \mathbb{Z})$. Motivation behind this construction is also discussed.

Keywords: extensions of type $\mathfrak{H}_n(G)$, amalgamated products, van Kampen theorem.
