Abstract

We show the finite metacyclic groups G(p, q) admit a class of projective resolutions which are periodic of period 2q and which in addition possess the properties that a) the differentials are 2×2 diagonal matrices; b) the Swan-Wall finiteness obstruction (cf [21], [22]) vanishes. We obtain thereby a purely algebraic proof of Petrie’s Theorem ([16]) that G(p, q) has free period 2q.
