Cohomology and the Combinatorics of Words for Magnus Formations

For a prime number $p$ and a free pro-$p$ group $G$ on a totally ordered basis $X$, we consider closed normal subgroups $G^Φ$ of $G$ which are generated by $p$-powers of iterated commutators associated with Lyndon words in the alphabet $X$. We express the profinite cohomology group $H^2(G/G^Φ)$ combinatorically, in terms of the shuffle algebra on $X$. This partly extends existing results for the lower $p$-central and $p$-Zassenhaus filtrations of $G$.
