The long exact sequence of a triple in relative singular homology #

For a triple B ⊆ A ⊆ X of topological spaces the relative singular chain complexes of the three pairs it determines form a short exact sequence

0 ⟶ C(A, B) ⟶ C(X, B) ⟶ C(X, A) ⟶ 0,

because each of them is the quotient of the singular chains of the ambient space by those of the subspace. The associated long homology sequence is the long exact sequence of the triple

⋯ ⟶ Hₙ(A, B) ⟶ Hₙ(X, B) ⟶ Hₙ(X, A) ⟶ Hₙ₋₁(A, B) ⟶ ⋯.

Each of the three pairs is a functor of the triple, so the three relative homology groups are functorial as well, and the connecting morphism is natural for morphisms of triples.

      Exactness at Hₘ(A, B) in the long exact sequence of a triple.

      Exactness at Hₙ(X, B) in the long exact sequence of a triple.

      Exactness at Hₙ(X, A) in the long exact sequence of a triple.

      The connecting morphism of a triple (X, A, B) is the connecting morphism of the pair (X, A) followed by the map Hₘ(A) ⟶ Hₘ(A, B). This factorization is what makes two consecutive connecting morphisms of a filtration compose to zero.

      The connecting morphism of the long exact sequence of a triple is natural: for a morphism of triples φ : (X, A, B) ⟶ (X', A', B'), following Hₙ(X, A) ⟶ Hₘ(A, B) by the map induced by φ on Hₘ(A, B) agrees with following the map induced by φ on Hₙ(X, A) by Hₙ(X', A') ⟶ Hₘ(A', B').

      The map H₀(X, B) ⟶ H₀(X, A) at the end of the long exact sequence of a triple is an epimorphism.
