Cohomology groups of a groupoid.
In a groupoid, consider arbitrarily parenthesized expressions on the variables where each appears once and all variables appear in order of their indices. We call these expressions -ary formal products, and denote the set containing all of them by . If are distinct, the statement that and are equal for all values of is a generalized associative law. Among other results, we show that many small groupoids are completely dissociative, meaning that no generalized associative law holds...
