Abstract: Conditions are given for a class 2 nilpotent group to have no central extensions of class 3. This is related to Betti numbers and to the problem of representing a class 2 nilpotent group as the fundamental group of a smooth projective variety.

Keywords: nilpotent groups; Lie algebras; cohomology; projective varieties

Classification (MSC2000): 20J06; 57T10; 20F18; 57M05
