A theorem on fibre bundles, $H^k(E) cong H^{k+n}(E,E_0)$.

This is a theorem about fibre bundles, stated in page 21, Theorem 3.6




Let $xi= (E,B,p)$ be an $n$-vector bundle. Let $F_0$ be the fibre $F$ without its nonzero element, and $E_0$ be the total space with out the zero section.



The group $H^i(E,E_0; Bbb Z_2)$ is zero for $i<n$ and $H^n(E,E_0; Bbb Z_2)$ contains a unique class $u$ such that for each fibre $F= pi^{-1}(b)$ the restriction,
$$ u|(F,F_0) in H^n(F,F_0; Bbb Z_2)$$
is the unique nonzero class in $H^n(F,F_0; Bbb Z_2)$. Furthermore, the correspondence $x mapsto x cup u $ defines an isomoprhism
$$ cdot cup u : H^k(E,Bbb Z_2) rightarrow H^{k+n}(E,E_0; Bbb Z_2)$$




My question is, how exactly is the last map (highlighted) defined?





My intuitive attempt: By definition an element in $H^{k+n}(E,E_0; Bbb Z_2)$ is represented by some cocycle $u:C_{n}(E,E_0) rightarrow Bbb Z_2$.



This again lifts to an element, $u':C_{n}(E) rightarrow Bbb Z_2$. Hence we can define
$$ x cup u: C_{k+n}(E) rightarrow Bbb Z_2$$
So it suffices to check this vanishes on $C_{k+n}(E_0)$, which does as $u$ vanishes on $C_n(E_0)$. So we have an induced map $x cup u:C_{k+n}(E,E_0) rightarrow Bbb Z_2$.



Now we then have a series of check: that this operation gives an element in cohomology class, and is well defined on cohomology class.





I think my argument (even if it is right) is extremely inefficient, is there a neat way to see this?

    An argument will depend on your definition of the cup product (in particular, it will depend on which cohomology theory you are using). For singular cohomology Hatcher gives a definition of the relative cup product on page 209 of Algebraic Toplogy. (See also, for instance, this post math.stackexchange.com/questions/1536537/…)
