Abstract

We consider cohomology of small categories with coefficients in a natural system in the sense of Baues and Wirsching. For any functor L : KCAT, we construct a spectral sequence abutting to the cohomology of the Grothendieck construction of L in terms of the cohomology of K and of L(k), for k ∈ ObK.
