Functoriality and augmentation of the DG algebra of cubical chains of a monoid #
For a continuous monoid homomorphism φ : G →ₜ* G' between topological monoids, pushing chains
forward along φ is multiplicative for the Pontryagin product and sends the unit to the unit, so
it induces a morphism of differential graded algebras
cubicalChainDGAlgHom R φ : C^□_*(G; R) → C^□_*(G'; R), functorially in φ.
The augmentation of 0-chains, extended by zero to the chains of positive dimension, is an
augmentation of the DG algebra C^□_*(G; R) in the sense of
TauCeti.Algebra.Homology.DG.Algebra.Augmentation: a DG algebra morphism to R, placed in
degree zero with zero differential. The morphisms induced by continuous monoid homomorphisms are
compatible with these augmentations.
For a continuous monoid homomorphism, the underlying linear map of cubicalChainAlgHom R φ is
the push-forward TauCeti.cubicalChainSumMap of the direct sums of chains.
