Definition 26.1 (Graded coalgebra). A ι-graded coalgebra over a commutative ring R is a coalgebra structure on the direct sum ⨁_i M i whose coproduct Δ : M → M ⊗ M respects the grading: for any homogeneous element x ∈ M_n, the component of Δ x in degree (p, q) vanishes whenever p + q ≠ n. In other words, Δ(M_n) ⊆ ⨁_{p+q=n} M_p ⊗ M_q. This is the coalgebraic analogue of a graded algebra and is the structure carried by the cohomology of a (Hopf) space.

    Definition 26.1 / Corollary 26.2 (Cocommutative graded coalgebra). A graded coalgebra is graded-cocommutative when its coproduct is invariant under the Koszul-signed twist on the tensor product: τ ∘ Δ = Δ, where τ : M ⊗ M → M ⊗ M sends a ⊗ b ↦ (-1)^{|a||b|} b ⊗ a on homogeneous elements. The diagonal map on a topological space induces such a cocommutative graded-coalgebra structure on its singular cohomology (Cor 26.2).
