The Hom complex of two curved duplexes #
For duplexes with the same curvature, the even and odd pairs of component maps form a two-periodic complex. Its differential is the graded commutator with the duplex differentials. The curvature terms cancel in its square. Degree-zero cycles are the closed even morphisms of duplexes, and degree-zero boundaries are their null-homotopic morphisms.
The sign convention follows Frenkel, Khovanov, and Schiffmann, Homological realization of Nakajima varieties and Weyl group actions, Compositio Mathematica 141 (2005), Sections 2–3.

An even pair is a degree-zero cycle exactly when it defines a closed duplex map.
A closed even map gives a cycle in the Hom complex.
Degree-zero cycles in the Hom complex are precisely closed even maps of duplexes.

An odd boundary is the pair of components of the null-homotopic map it defines.
A closed map is null-homotopic exactly when its cycle is an odd boundary.
