From simplicial to cubical chains with local coefficients #

The comparison TauCeti.singularToCubical of the simplicial singular chains with the normalized cubical chains is natural, and the model Δⁿ is contractible, so it extends to chains with local coefficients exactly as the comparison in the other direction does (TauCeti.LocalCoefficientSystem.twistedCubicalToSingularMap). For a singular n-simplex σ of X and a coefficient a in the fibre at its initial vertex, the image is the twisted cubical pushforward (TauCeti.LocalCoefficientSystem.NormalizedTwistedCubicalChain.pushforward) along σ, regarded as a map from the model, of the image TauCeti.singularToCubicalGen n of the identity simplex of the model, with the coefficient a at the initial vertex of the model.

The decisive property is the compatibility with pushforwards from simply connected spaces (TauCeti.LocalCoefficientSystem.twistedSingularToCubical_twistedPushforward): the comparison carries the simplicial pushforward of a chain of a simply connected space Z to the cubical pushforward of its image. Every simplex with a coefficient is such a pushforward from a standard simplex, so identities between natural maps reduce, generator by generator, to the model, where they are the untwisted ones. Here this gives the chain map property. The analogous compatibility of the comparison in the other direction is TauCeti.LocalCoefficientSystem.normalizedTwistedCubicalToSingular_pushforward.
