Homology of representable sets

Marian Mrozek, Bogdan Batko (2010)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

We generalize the notion of cubical homology to the class of locally compact representable sets in order to propose a new convenient method of reducing the complexity of a set while computing its homology.

Relationship among various Vietoris-type and microsimplicial homology theories

Takuma Imamura (2021)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

In this paper, we clarify the relationship among the Vietoris-type homology theories and the microsimplicial homology theories, where the latter are nonstandard homology theories defined by M.C. McCord (for topological spaces), T. Korppi (for completely regular topological spaces) and the author (for uniform spaces). We show that McCord’s and our homology are isomorphic for all compact uniform spaces and that Korppi’s and our homology are isomorphic for all fine uniform spaces. Our homology...

A 2-category of chronological cobordisms and odd Khovanov homology

Krzysztof K. Putyra (2014)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We create a framework for odd Khovanov homology in the spirit of Bar-Natan's construction for the ordinary Khovanov homology. Namely, we express the cube of resolutions of a link diagram as a diagram in a certain 2-category of chronological cobordisms and show that it is 2-commutative: the composition of 2-morphisms along any 3-dimensional subcube is trivial. This allows us to create a chain complex whose homotopy type modulo certain relations is a link invariant. Both the original and...

On the first homology of Peano continua

Gregory R. Conner, Samuel M. Corson (2016)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that the first homology group of a locally connected compact metric space is either uncountable or finitely generated. This is related to Shelah's well-known result (1988) which shows that the fundamental group of such a space satisfies a similar condition. We give an example of such a space whose fundamental group is uncountable but whose first homology is trivial, showing that our result does not follow from Shelah's. We clarify a claim made by Pawlikowski (1998) and offer...

Chewing the Khovanov homology of tangles

Magnus Jacobsson (2004)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We present an elementary description of Khovanov's homology of tangles [K2], in the spirit of Viro's paper [V]. The formulation here is over the polynomial ring ℤ[c], unlike [K2] where the theory was presented over the integers only.

Introduction to the basics of Heegaard Floer homology

Bijan Sahamie (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

This paper provides an introduction to the basics of Heegaard Floer homology with some emphasis on the hat theory and to the contact geometric invariants in the theory. The exposition is designed to be comprehensible to people without any prior knowledge of the subject.

Torsion in one-term distributive homology

Alissa S. Crans, Józef H. Przytycki, Krzysztof K. Putyra (2014)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

The one-term distributive homology was introduced in [Prz] as an atomic replacement of rack and quandle homology, which was first introduced and developed by Fenn-Rourke-Sanderson [FRS] and Carter-Kamada-Saito [CKS]. This homology was initially suspected to be torsion-free [Prz], but we show in this paper that the one-term homology of a finite spindle may have torsion. We carefully analyze spindles of block decomposition of type (n,1) and introduce various techniques to compute their...
