Spectral sequences

The algebra generated by $\{\theta^i_{j}, R^i_j\}$ is closed under the differential $d$, so we have a subcomplex

\begin{displaymath}
(\bR\{\theta^i_{j}, R^i_j\}, d)
=: (\widetilde{W_n}, d)\subset (C^{\bullet}(\gA_n), d).
\end{displaymath}

where

\begin{displaymath}
\bR\{\theta^i_{j}, R^i_j\}\isom \Lambda^{\bullet}\ggl_n(\bR)^*\tensor S_n(\ggl_n(\bR)^*)
\end{displaymath}


\begin{thm}
The inclusion
\begin{displaymath}
(\widetilde{W_n}, d)\hookrightarro...
...isplaymath}is a quasi-isomorphism (induces isomorphism on cohomology).
\end{thm}

The proof uses Hochschild-Serre spectral sequence, which we describe next.
