Cohomology of Toroidal Orbifold Quotients

Let $ϕ:\Z/p\to GL_{n}(\Z)$ denote an integral representation of the cyclic group of prime order $p$. This induces a $\Z/p$-action on the torus $X=\R^{n}/\Z^{n}$. The goal of this paper is to explicitly compute the cohomology groups $H^{*}(X/\Z/p;\Z)$ for any such representation. As a consequence we obtain an explicit calculation of the integral cohomology of the classifying space associated to the family of finite subgroups for any crystallographic group $Γ=\Z^n\rtimes\Z/p$ with prime holonomy.
