The singular chains of the infinite cyclic cover of a mapping torus #
Let φ : F ≃ₜ F be a homeomorphism. The mapping torus T_φ is the quotient of the cylinder
F × ℝ by the covering action of ℤ generated by the deck transformation
τ : (x, t) ↦ (φ x, t + 1). This file proves that the singular chains of the cover and of the
mapping torus form a short exact sequence of chain complexes
0 ⟶ C(F × ℝ; R) ⟶ C(F × ℝ; R) ⟶ C(T_φ; R) ⟶ 0, whose first map is 𝟙 - τ_* and whose second
map is induced by the covering map.
TauCeti.MappingTorus.isColimitCyclicCoverCokernelCofork: the chains of the mapping torus are the cokernel of𝟙 - τ_*. Since the mapping torus is the quotient ofF × ℝby a covering action, its chains are the coinvariants of the action ofℤon the chains ofF × ℝ(IsQuotientCoveringMap.isColimitMapCoconeSingularChainComplex), and coinvariants ofℤare a cokernel of𝟙 - τ_*.TauCeti.MappingTorus.isSplitMono_id_sub_deckChainMap_f: in each degree,𝟙 - τ_*is a split monomorphism. The deck transformation permutes the singular simplices ofF × ℝfreely, raising the integer part of the height of the initial vertex by one, so the retraction telescopes along each orbit (TauCeti.isSplitMono_id_sub).TauCeti.MappingTorus.cyclicCoverShortComplex_shortExact: the short exact sequence, for coefficients in an abelian category with coproducts.
The projection F × ℝ → F is a homotopy equivalence carrying τ to φ. Through it, the long
exact homology sequence of this short exact sequence is the Wang sequence
⋯ ⟶ Hₙ(F) ⟶ Hₙ(F) ⟶ Hₙ(T_φ) ⟶ Hₙ₋₁(F) ⟶ ⋯ of the mapping torus, with first map 𝟙 - φ_*; see

The endomorphism τ_* of the singular chains of the cylinder F × ℝ induced by the deck
transformation τ : (x, t) ↦ (φ x, t + 1).
Instances For
The deck chain map is the singular-chain functor applied to the deck transformation.
The map from the singular chains of the cylinder F × ℝ to those of the mapping torus induced
by the covering map.
Instances For
The cover chain map is the singular-chain functor applied to the covering map.
The covering map is invariant under the deck transformation, so the cover chain map kills
𝟙 - τ_*.

The chains of a mapping torus are a cokernel. The singular chains of the mapping torus
of φ are the cokernel of 𝟙 - τ_* on the singular chains of the cylinder F × ℝ, with
projection the cover chain map.
Instances For
In each degree, 𝟙 - τ_* is a split monomorphism on the singular chains of the cylinder. The
deck transformation raises the integer part of the height of the initial vertex of a singular
simplex by one, so it permutes the simplices freely and the retraction telescopes along each
orbit.
