The discussion focuses on determining the cohomology ring of the complement of hyperplanes in complex n-space, specifically for n ≥ 1 and 1 ≤ m ≤ n. It addresses the scenario where λ_1, ..., λ_m are complex linearly independent linear functionals. The goal is to compute the cohomology ring H*(C^n \ setminus ∪_{k=1}^m ker λ_k; G) for any abelian group G. Key points include the implications of the linear independence of the functionals on the topology of the complement and the methods for computing the cohomology ring. The exploration of this topic contributes to a deeper understanding of algebraic topology in relation to complex geometry.

Let ##n \ge 1## and ##1 \le m \le n##. Suppose ##\lambda_1,\ldots, \lambda_m : \mathbb{C}^n \to \mathbb{C}## are ##\mathbb{C}##-linearly independent linear functionals. For each abelian group ##G##, determine the cohomology ring $$H^*(\mathbb{C}^n \setminus \bigcup_{k = 1}^m \ker \lambda_k ; G)$$
