Relative classes of 1-simplices #

For a pair of simplicial sets Q (a monomorphism Q.left ⟶ Q.right), a 1-simplex s of Q.right whose two faces lie in Q.left is a relative cycle, and so has a class SSetPair.relClass₁ R Q s v₀ v₁ h₀ h₁ : R ⟶ Q.homology R 1 in relative homology with coefficients in R. This file computes its image under the connecting morphism, the difference [v₁] - [v₀] of the classes of its endpoints (SSetPair.relClass₁_homologyδ); proves that the class is natural in maps of pairs (SSetPair.relClass₁_homologyMap); and identifies it with the image of the absolute class SSet.ιHomology₁ (in SimplicialSet/Homology/One.lean) when the two faces agree (SSetPair.ιHomology₁_homologyπ). The computation of the connecting morphism is ShortComplex.ShortExact.δ_eq for the short exact sequence of chain complexes of the pair.

With coproducts available, the relative cycle needs only preadditive coefficients. Its class and naturality also require a category with homology. The connecting-morphism calculation uses abelian coefficients.

Main definitions and results #

The relative homology class of a 1-simplex of the ambient simplicial set whose two faces lie in the subcomplex.

Instances For

    A map of pairs carries a face of a 1-simplex lying in the subcomplex to a face lying in the subcomplex.

    @[simp]

    The connecting morphism on the relative class of a 1-simplex is the difference of the classes of its two vertices in the subcomplex.
