The relative homology of a disk and its boundary #

The relative singular homology of the n-disk modulo its boundary is one copy of the coefficient object in degree n and vanishes in every other degree.

The degree-zero relative homology of a positive-dimensional disk vanishes relative to its boundary. For the one-dimensional disk, both boundary points determine the same zeroth-homology class of the disk; in higher dimensions the boundary itself is path-connected. The lower bound is sharp: for n = 0, the disk is a point and its boundary is empty, so the degree-zero group is one copy of the coefficient object, identified by the augmentation.

In positive degrees, the disk is contractible, so the reduced connecting morphism of the pair identifies Hₖ₊₁(Dⁿ, Sⁿ⁻¹) with the reduced homology H~ₖ(Sⁿ⁻¹) of the boundary sphere, which is computed in TauCeti/AlgebraicTopology/Singular/Sphere.lean. The isomorphism Hₙ(Dⁿ, Sⁿ⁻¹) ≅ R in the top degree is this connecting morphism followed by the chosen generator of H~ₙ₋₁(Sⁿ⁻¹), so the connecting morphism carries the generator of the pair to the generator of the sphere.

The inclusion from the boundary of a disk of dimension at least two is an isomorphism on zeroth singular homology.

The degree-zero relative homology of a positive-dimensional disk and its boundary vanishes.

The relative homology of the pair of the 0-disk and its empty boundary is the ordinary homology of the point D⁰: the quotient map from ambient to relative singular homology is an isomorphism, and this is its inverse (TauCeti.singularHomologyDiskBoundaryPairZeroIso_inv).

    The comparison from the relative homology of the 0-disk pair to the ordinary homology of the point is the inverse of the quotient map.

    The comparison from the ordinary homology of the point to the relative homology of the 0-disk pair is the quotient map from ambient to relative singular homology.

    The relative homology of a disk modulo its boundary vanishes outside its dimension: Hₖ(Dⁿ, Sⁿ⁻¹) = 0 for k ≠ n.

    The relative homology of a disk modulo its boundary in its dimension: Hₙ(Dⁿ, Sⁿ⁻¹) ≅ R. For n = m + 1 it is the reduced connecting isomorphism onto H~ₘ(Sᵐ) followed by the chosen generator TauCeti.reducedSingularHomologyTopCatSphereIso of the sphere (TauCeti.singularHomologyDiskBoundaryPairIso_succ_hom); for n = 0 the pair is a point modulo the empty set and the isomorphism is the augmentation.

      In positive dimension, the identification Hₘ₊₁(Dᵐ⁺¹, Sᵐ) ≅ R is the reduced connecting morphism of the pair followed by the chosen generator of H~ₘ(Sᵐ).

      The ordinary connecting morphism sends the disk generator to the boundary-sphere generator, viewed in unreduced homology. In dimension one this is the reduced class of the two endpoints.

      In dimension zero, the identification H₀(D⁰, ∅) ≅ R is the inverse of the quotient map from the ordinary homology of the point followed by the augmentation.
