Effective homology for homotopy colimit and cofibrant replacement

Marek Filakovský (2014)

Archivum Mathematicum

Similarity:

We extend the notion of simplicial set with effective homology presented in [22] to diagrams of simplicial sets. Further, for a given finite diagram of simplicial sets X : ℐ → sSet such that each simplicial set X ( i ) has effective homology, we present an algorithm computing the homotopy colimit hocolim X as a simplicial set with effective homology. We also give an algorithm computing the cofibrant replacement X cof of X as a diagram with effective homology. This is applied to computing of equivariant cohomology...

Topos based homology theory

M. V. Mielke (1993)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In this paper we extend the Eilenberg-Steenrod axiomatic description of a homology theory from the category of topological spaces to an arbitrary category and, in particular, to a topos. Implicit in this extension is an extension of the notions of homotopy and excision. A general discussion of such homotopy and excision structures on a category is given along with several examples including the interval based homotopies and, for toposes, the excisions represented by “cutting out” subobjects....

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...
