Cohomology theories on compact and locally compact spaces.

Edwin Spanier (1986)

Revista Matemática Iberoamericana

Similarity:

This paper is devoted to an exposition of cohomology theories on categories of spaces where the cohomology theories satisfy the type of axiom system considered in [1, 12, 16, 17, 18]. The categories considered are C, the category of all compact Haudorff spaces and continuous functions between them, and C, the category of all locally compact Hausdorff spaces and proper continuous functions between them. The fundamental uniqueness theorem for cohomology theories on a finite dimensional...

Double complexes and vanishing of Novikov cohomology

Hüttemann, Thomas (2011)

2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 18G35; Secondary 55U15. We consider non-standard totalisation functors for double complexes, involving left or right truncated products. We show how properties of these imply that the algebraic mapping torus of a self map h of a cochain complex of finitely presented modules has trivial negative Novikov cohomology, and has trivial positive Novikov cohomology provided h is a quasi-isomorphism. As an application we obtain a new...

Nash cohomology of smooth manifolds

W. Kucharz (2005)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

A Nash cohomology class on a compact Nash manifold is a mod 2 cohomology class whose Poincaré dual homology class can be represented by a Nash subset. We find a canonical way to define Nash cohomology classes on an arbitrary compact smooth manifold M. Then the Nash cohomology ring of M is compared to the ring of algebraic cohomology classes on algebraic models of M. This is related to three conjectures concerning algebraic cohomology classes.
