Abstract

For a complex algebraic variety X, we show that triviality of the degree three unramified cohomology H0(X,H3) (occurring on the second page of the Bloch-Ogus spectral sequence [1]) follows from a condition on the integral Chow group CH2X and the integral cohomology group H3(X,Z). In the case that X is an appropriate approximation to the classifying stack BG of a finite p-group G, this result states that the group G has no degree three cohomological invariants. As a corollary we show that the nonabelian groups of order p3 for odd prime p have no degree three cohomological invariants.
