A Mayer-Vietoris cover of a space: a two-element family {A, B} of subsets of X
whose interiors cover X. This is the input data for Theorem 11.5.

Instances For
The trivial pair (A ∩ B, ∅) associated to the intersection of the cover elements.
Instances For
The inclusion of pairs (A ∩ B, ∅) ↪ (A, ∅), which underlies the map
j_1 : H_n(A ∩ B) → H_n(A) in the Mayer-Vietoris sequence.
Instances For
The inclusion of pairs (A ∩ B, ∅) ↪ (B, ∅), which underlies the map
j_2 : H_n(A ∩ B) → H_n(B) in the Mayer-Vietoris sequence.
Instances For
The inclusion of pairs (A, ∅) ↪ (X, ∅), which underlies the map
i_1 : H_n(A) → H_n(X) in the Mayer-Vietoris sequence.
Instances For
The inclusion of pairs (B, ∅) ↪ (X, ∅), which underlies the map
i_2 : H_n(B) → H_n(X) in the Mayer-Vietoris sequence.
Instances For
The Mayer-Vietoris long exact sequence for a homology theory h and a cover c
(Theorem 11.5): connecting homomorphisms ∂ : H_{n+1}(X) →+ H_n(A ∩ B) together with
exactness of the long sequence
⋯ → H_n(A ∩ B) → H_n(A) ⊕ H_n(B) → H_n(X) → H_{n-1}(A ∩ B) → ⋯,
where the first map is [j_{1*}, -j_{2*}] and the second is i_{1*} + i_{2*}.
Instances For
The pair (X, A) extracted from a Mayer-Vietoris cover, used as the input to the
excision axiom that drives the construction of the connecting homomorphism.
Instances For
The complement of B is an excisive subset of the pair (X, A): its closure lies
in the interior of A. This is the geometric input that lets us apply excision when
building the Mayer-Vietoris connecting homomorphism.
The homeomorphism of pairs from the sub-pair of EP to (A ∩ B, ∅): each point of
the excised subspace lies in A (by sub-pair membership) and in B (since it is not
in Bᶜ).
Instances For
Inverse to trSub: each point of A ∩ B lies outside Bᶜ, hence in the sub-pair
of the excised pair EP.
Instances For
The homeomorphism of pairs from the total-space pair of EP to (B, ∅): a point
of X that lies outside Bᶜ is the same data as a point of B.
Instances For
Inverse to trSp: a point of B corresponds to the point of X lying outside
Bᶜ in the total space of the excised pair.
Instances For
The constant homotopy from a self-map of a pair f : P → P that acts as the
identity on points (f x = x) to the identity map of P.
Instances For
trSub and trSubInv compose (one way) to the identity of (A ∩ B, ∅), up to
homotopy of pair maps.
trSub and trSubInv compose (the other way) to the identity of EP.subPair,
up to homotopy of pair maps.
trSp and trSpInv compose (one way) to the identity of (B, ∅), up to homotopy
of pair maps.
trSp and trSpInv compose (the other way) to the identity of the total-space
pair of EP, up to homotopy.
If g ∘ f is homotopic to the identity, then on a homology theory ht.map n g
is a left inverse of ht.map n f, by homotopy invariance and functoriality.
If f and g are pair maps whose compositions are both homotopic to the identity,
then ht.map n f is a bijection. This packages the homotopy equivalence into a
bijection on homology, used to transfer information across the excised pair.
The inclusion (A ∩ B, ∅) ↪ (B, ∅) factors as the round-trip
(A ∩ B, ∅) → EP.subPair ↪ EP.space → (B, ∅) through the excised pair.
The restriction of the excision inclusion to subspaces factors as
trSub followed by inclAB_A.
The composite (B, ∅) ↪ (X, ∅) ↪ (X, A) agrees with the composite that goes
through the excised pair EP via trSpInv and the excision inclusion.
Exactness transfer along bijective homomorphisms: if f, g form an exact sequence at
B, ψ : B ≃+ B' is a two-sided inverse pair, and χ : C →+ C' is injective, then
(ψ ∘ f, χ ∘ g ∘ ψ⁻¹) is exact at B'. Used to push exactness across the
homotopy equivalences trSub, trSp in the Mayer-Vietoris construction.
The Mayer-Vietoris long exact sequence (Theorem 11.5): from any Eilenberg-Steenrod
homology theory h and a cover c = {A, B} of X by sets whose interiors cover, we
construct the connecting homomorphism ∂ and the three exactness statements assembling
into the long exact sequence
⋯ → H_n(A ∩ B) → H_n(A) ⊕ H_n(B) → H_n(X) → H_{n-1}(A ∩ B) → ⋯. The proof factors
the boundary H_{n+1}(X) → H_n(A ∩ B) through the long exact sequence of the pair
(X, A) and the excised pair, using the homotopy equivalences trSub, trSp.
