Splitting off the top term of a bounded cochain complex #

For a cochain complex K over a category with zero morphisms and a zero object, the brutal truncation K.stupidTrunc (ComplexShape.embeddingUpIntLE n) keeps the terms of K in degrees ≤ n and replaces the others by zero. The differentials of K go up in degree, so this truncation is a quotient complex of K: the projection CochainComplex.πStupidTruncLE K n is an isomorphism in every degree ≤ n.

When K vanishes in degrees > n + 1, its top term K.X (n + 1) placed in degree n + 1 is a subcomplex, and in the preadditive setting the two maps form the short complex CochainComplex.topShortComplex K n

K.X (n + 1)[-(n + 1)] ⟶ K ⟶ K.stupidTrunc (embeddingUpIntLE n),

which is split in each degree (CochainComplex.topShortComplexSplitting). Degreewise split short exact sequences of complexes give distinguished triangles in the homotopy category, so this is the step of an induction on the length of a bounded complex: it expresses a bounded complex as an extension of a shorter one by a complex concentrated in a single degree.

Main definitions #

The projection of a cochain complex onto its brutal truncation in degrees ≤ n. It is a map of complexes because the differentials of a cochain complex go up in degree.

Equations
Instances For
    @[simp]

    In a retained degree, the projection is the inverse of the canonical identification with the original complex.

    @[simp]

    In a degree above the truncation bound, the projection is zero.

    The projection onto the brutal truncation in degrees ≤ n is an isomorphism in each degree ≤ n.

    The inclusion of the top term K.X n, placed in degree n, into a cochain complex K vanishing in degrees > n.

    Equations
    Instances For
      @[simp]

      The inclusion of the top term is the identity in the top degree.

      @[simp]

      Away from the top degree, the inclusion of the top term is zero.

      @[simp]

      The inclusion of the top term followed by the projection onto the brutal truncation below it is zero.

      The short complex splitting off the top term of a cochain complex K vanishing in degrees > n + 1: the top term in degree n + 1, then K, then the brutal truncation of K in degrees ≤ n.

        The short complex splitting off the top term is formed by the inclusion of the top term and the projection onto the brutal truncation below it.

        @[simp]

        The first term of the short complex splitting off the top term is the top term placed in degree n + 1.

        @[simp]

        The middle term of the short complex splitting off the top term is the complex itself.

        @[simp]

        The last term of the short complex splitting off the top term is the brutal truncation in degrees ≤ n.

        @[simp]

        The first map of the short complex splitting off the top term is the top-term inclusion.

        @[simp]

        The second map of the short complex splitting off the top term is the truncation projection.

        The short complex splitting off the top term is split in each degree: in degree n + 1 its first map is an isomorphism and its third term vanishes, and in every other degree its first term vanishes and its second map is an isomorphism.
