-"In field theory and in modern elementary particle theory, cocycles 
-are used to describe [[theories:​quantum_theory:​quantum_field_theory:​anomalies|anomalies]]."​ ([[https://​inspirehep.net/​record/​213998/​files/​v15-n3-p99.pdf|Source]]) 
- 
-1-cocycles are used to understand anomalies in the Lagrangian framework. The 1-cocycles show up in the non-conservation of classically conserved currents. ​ 
- 
-2-cocycles are used to understand anomalies in the Hamiltonian framework. They have the effect that it becomes impossible to satisfy Gauss' law.

-Explanations in this section should contain no formulas, but instead colloquial things like you would hear them during a coffee break or at a cocktail party.
