The coefficient long exact sequence and the Bockstein homomorphism #

Let 0 ⟶ M₁ ⟶ M₂ ⟶ M₃ ⟶ 0 be a short exact sequence of coefficients in a k-linear abelian category C with coproducts, and let R : C be projective; for the usual singular cohomology with coefficients in k-modules, take C := ModuleCat k and R := k. The singular chains Cₙ(X; R) of a space are a coproduct of copies of R, hence projective (SSet.projective_chainComplex_X_of_projective), and so are the relative chains Cₙ(X, A; R) of a pair, which are a direct summand of Cₙ(X; R). The functors Hom(C(X; R), -) and Hom(C(X, A; R), -) of the coefficients are therefore exact, which gives short exact sequences of singular cochain complexes

0 ⟶ C*(X; M₁) ⟶ C*(X; M₂) ⟶ C*(X; M₃) ⟶ 0, 0 ⟶ C*(X, A; M₁) ⟶ C*(X, A; M₂) ⟶ C*(X, A; M₃) ⟶ 0.

Their connecting morphisms are the Bockstein homomorphisms Hⁿ(X; M₃) ⟶ Hⁿ⁺¹(X; M₁) and Hⁿ(X, A; M₃) ⟶ Hⁿ⁺¹(X, A; M₁), and their long exact cohomology sequences are the coefficient long exact sequences

⋯ ⟶ Hⁿ(X; M₁) ⟶ Hⁿ(X; M₂) ⟶ Hⁿ(X; M₃) ⟶ Hⁿ⁺¹(X; M₁) ⟶ ⋯,

whose maps between the cohomology groups with the same degree are induced by the coefficient maps. The Bockstein homomorphism is natural in continuous maps, respectively maps of pairs, and in morphisms of short exact sequences of coefficients.

Exactness in the coefficients is the only input: for a fixed chain complex K whose terms are projective, Hom(K, -) is exact (ChainComplex.shortExact_map_linearYonedaObjFunctor). It is not the long exact sequence of a pair, which instead uses that the chain sequence of a pair splits in each degree.

The sequence of singular cochain complexes C*(X; S.X₁) ⟶ C*(X; S.X₂) ⟶ C*(X; S.X₃) induced by a short complex S of coefficients: its maps are postcomposition with the maps of S.

Instances For

    The morphism from the coefficient cochain sequence of Y to that of X induced by a continuous map f : X ⟶ Y: its components are the cochain maps induced by f.

    Instances For

      A short exact sequence 0 ⟶ M₁ ⟶ M₂ ⟶ M₃ ⟶ 0 of coefficients induces a short exact sequence 0 ⟶ C*(X; M₁) ⟶ C*(X; M₂) ⟶ C*(X; M₃) ⟶ 0 of singular cochain complexes.

      The Bockstein homomorphism Hⁿ(X; M₃) ⟶ Hᵐ(X; M₁), for n + 1 = m, of a short exact sequence 0 ⟶ M₁ ⟶ M₂ ⟶ M₃ ⟶ 0 of coefficients: the connecting morphism of the long exact cohomology sequence of the short exact sequence of singular cochain complexes.

      Instances For

        The Bockstein homomorphism is, by definition, the connecting morphism of the short exact sequence 0 ⟶ C*(X; M₁) ⟶ C*(X; M₂) ⟶ C*(X; M₃) ⟶ 0 of singular cochain complexes.

        Exactness at Hᵐ(X; M₁): Hⁿ(X; M₃) ⟶ Hᵐ(X; M₁) ⟶ Hᵐ(X; M₂) is exact for n + 1 = m.

        Exactness at Hⁿ(X; M₃): Hⁿ(X; M₂) ⟶ Hⁿ(X; M₃) ⟶ Hᵐ(X; M₁) is exact for n + 1 = m.

        The Bockstein homomorphism is natural in the space: for a continuous map f : X ⟶ Y, following Hⁿ(Y; M₃) ⟶ Hᵐ(Y; M₁) by the map induced by f agrees with following the map induced by f by Hⁿ(X; M₃) ⟶ Hᵐ(X; M₁).

        The Bockstein homomorphism is natural in the space: for a continuous map f : X ⟶ Y, following Hⁿ(Y; M₃) ⟶ Hᵐ(Y; M₁) by the map induced by f agrees with following the map induced by f by Hⁿ(X; M₃) ⟶ Hᵐ(X; M₁).

        The Bockstein homomorphism is natural in the short exact sequence of coefficients: a morphism φ : S ⟶ S' of short exact sequences of coefficients commutes with the Bockstein homomorphisms of S and S' and the maps on singular cohomology induced by its components.
