Steenrod operations are cohomological operations that act on the cohomology groups of topological spaces, particularly in the context of stable homotopy theory. These operations provide a way to derive new cohomology classes from existing ones, enriching the structure of cohomology and revealing deep relationships between different topological spaces, particularly in their connections to K-Theory and its computations.
congrats on reading the definition of steenrod operations. now let's actually learn it.
