Extract

We determine the integral cohomology rings of an infinite family of p-groups, for odd primes p, with cyclic derived subgroups. Our method involves embedding the groups in a compact Lie group of dimension one, and was suggested independently by P. H. Kropholler and J. Huebschmann. This construction has also been used by the author to calculate the mod-p cohomology of the same groups and by B. Moselle to obtain partial results concerning the mod-p cohomology of the extra special p-groups [7], [9].
