TauCeti.Algebra.Homology.Boundaries

The differential onto the boundaries #

Let K be a homological complex. Write Zⱼ for its cycles in degree j, Hⱼ for its homology and Bⱼ = ker (Zⱼ ⟶ Hⱼ) for its boundaries, the kernel of the projection of the cycles onto the homology. The differential Kᵢ ⟶ Kⱼ corestricts to a morphism K.toBoundaries i j : Kᵢ ⟶ Bⱼ; this needs only zero morphisms and the existence of Hⱼ and Bⱼ. In an abelian category, for a relation i → j of the shape it is the cokernel of the inclusion Zᵢ ⟶ Kᵢ of the cycles (HomologicalComplex.toBoundariesIsCokernel), so that 0 ⟶ Zᵢ ⟶ Kᵢ ⟶ Bⱼ ⟶ 0 is short exact.

Together with 0 ⟶ Bⱼ ⟶ Zⱼ ⟶ Hⱼ ⟶ 0, this is the decomposition of a complex into cycles, boundaries and homology, used for splitting complexes and for the universal coefficient sequence.

Main declarations #

    The corestriction of the differential to the boundaries vanishes on boundaries.

    The corestriction of the differential to the boundaries vanishes on boundaries.

    At a degree where a complex is exact, the boundaries Bⱼ = ker (Zⱼ ⟶ Hⱼ) are all of the cycles.

    For a relation i → j of the shape, the corestriction Kᵢ ⟶ Bⱼ of the differential is an epimorphism, because the homology Hⱼ is the cokernel of Kᵢ ⟶ Zⱼ.

    For a relation i → j of the shape, the corestriction Kᵢ ⟶ Bⱼ of the differential is the cokernel of the inclusion Zᵢ ⟶ Kᵢ of the cycles: it is an epimorphism whose kernel is Zᵢ, the kernel of the differential.
