Definition 27.2. The Ext-functor $\mathrm{Ext}^n_R(M, N)$ at level $n$, packaged
as a ModuleCat R. Concretely, this is the $n$-th cohomology of $\mathrm{Hom}_R(F_*, N)$
for any free resolution $0 \leftarrow M \leftarrow F_0 \leftarrow F_1 \leftarrow \cdots$,
realised here via the derived functor Ext on the abelian category of R-modules.
Instances For
From an iso $A \oplus D \cong B$, manufacture a short exact sequence $0 \to A \to B \to D \to 0$ together with a splitting. Used to package the UCT biproduct decomposition as the split short exact sequence appearing in Theorem 27.1.
The underlying biproduct isomorphism behind the UCT: for a free chain complex $C_*$
over a PID $R$ and a coefficient module $N$, there is an iso
$\mathrm{Ext}^1(H_{n-1}, N) \oplus \mathrm{Hom}(H_n, N) \cong H^n(\mathrm{Hom}(C_*, N))$.
This is the unsplit form of Theorem 27.1, from which the split short exact sequence is
extracted by splitting_from_biprod_iso.
Instances For
Theorem 27.1 (Mixed-variance Universal Coefficient Theorem). For a chain complex $C_*$ of free $R$-modules over a PID $R$ and any coefficient module $N$, there is a (non-naturally) split short exact sequence $$0 \to \mathrm{Ext}^1_R(H_{n-1}(C_*), N) \to H^n(\mathrm{Hom}_R(C_*, N)) \to \mathrm{Hom}_R(H_n(C_*), N) \to 0.$$
The cochain map $\mathrm{Hom}(D_*, N) \to \mathrm{Hom}(C_*, N)$ induced by a chain map $\varphi : C_* \to D_*$, used to phrase naturality of the UCT in the chain-complex variable.
Instances For
The cochain map $\mathrm{Hom}(C_*, N) \to \mathrm{Hom}(C_*, N')$ induced by a coefficient map $f : N \to N'$, used to phrase naturality of the UCT in the coefficient variable.
Instances For
Naturality of the UCT biproduct isomorphism in the chain-complex variable: a chain map $\varphi : C_* \to D_*$ induces compatible maps on $\mathrm{Ext}^1(H_{n-1}(-), N)$, $\mathrm{Hom}(H_n(-), N)$, and $H^n(\mathrm{Hom}(-, N))$, making the obvious square commute.
Naturality of the UCT biproduct isomorphism in the coefficient variable: a coefficient map $f : N \to N'$ induces compatible maps on $\mathrm{Ext}^1(H_{n-1}, -)$, $\mathrm{Hom}(H_n, -)$, and $H^n(\mathrm{Hom}(C_*, -))$, making the obvious square commute.
The cap product $\cap : H^p(X; R) \otimes H_n(X; R) \to H_{n-p}(X; R)$ expressed as the curried $R$-bilinear map $H^p(X; R) \to (H_n(X; R) \to H_{n-p}(X; R))$. Used downstream for capping with the fundamental class in Poincaré duality.
Instances For
The singular chain complex $S_*(X; R)$ of a topological space $X$ with coefficients in
$R$, packaged as a chain complex of R-modules indexed by ℕ.
Instances For
Each module of singular chains $S_i(X; R)$ is free over $R$ (with basis the singular
$i$-simplices). This is the hypothesis needed to apply the UCT (cohomologyUCT) to the
singular chain complex.
