Relative singular chains and homology with local coefficients #
Let (X, A) be a topological pair and let L be a local coefficient system on X. Restricting
L along the inclusion of A twists the singular chains of A, and because the singular
simplices of A inject into those of X the resulting map into the twisted chains of X is a
monomorphism in every degree. Its cokernel is the relative twisted chain complex of the pair,
whose homology is relative singular homology with coefficients in L.
This file constructs that complex, records the short exact sequence of chain complexes it sits
in, and derives from it the long exact sequence relating the twisted homology of A, of X, and
of the pair. For a constant system the relative complex is the ordinary relative singular chain
complex, compatibly with the quotient maps from the chains of the ambient space, and the same
comparison in homology identifies relative twisted homology with ordinary relative homology.
Relative homology with local coefficients is the form in which cap products against the
orientation system express manifold duality, which is what makes the relative theory, and not
only the absolute one of TauCeti.AlgebraicTopology.Singular.Twisted.Basic, necessary.

The cokernel presentation, the short exact sequence and the shape of the three exactness
statements follow Mathlib's relative simplicial homology
(Mathlib.AlgebraicTopology.SimplicialSet.Homology.Relative, by Joël Riou and Andrew Yang), of
which this is the twisted analogue; TauCeti.AlgebraicTopology.Singular.Relative is its untwisted
topological specialization.
