The connecting (boundary) homomorphism ∂ : Hᵢ(C) ⟶ Hⱼ(A) associated with a short exact
sequence 0 → A → B → C → 0 of chain complexes, where j is the index reached from i
under the complex shape. This is the key map appearing in the homology long exact sequence
(Theorem 9.1).
Instances For
Exactness of the long exact sequence at the middle term Hᵢ(B): the image of
Hᵢ(A) → Hᵢ(B) equals the kernel of Hᵢ(B) → Hᵢ(C) for a short exact sequence of
chain complexes.
Exactness of the long exact sequence at Hᵢ(C): the image of Hᵢ(B) → Hᵢ(C) equals
the kernel of the connecting map ∂ : Hᵢ(C) → Hⱼ(A).
Exactness of the long exact sequence at Hⱼ(A): the image of the connecting map
∂ : Hᵢ(C) → Hⱼ(A) equals the kernel of Hⱼ(A) → Hⱼ(B).
Packaged data for the homology long exact sequence (Theorem 9.1): the connecting
homomorphism δ and the three exactness statements (at Hᵢ(B), at Hᵢ(C), and at
Hⱼ(A)) for a short exact sequence of chain complexes.
Instances For
Theorem 9.1 (Homology long exact sequence). Given a short exact sequence
0 → A → B → C → 0 of chain complexes, there is a natural connecting homomorphism
∂ : Hₙ(C) → Hₙ₋₁(A) such that
⋯ → Hₙ(A) → Hₙ(B) → Hₙ(C) →∂ Hₙ₋₁(A) → ⋯
is exact. This bundles the connecting map together with exactness at each spot.

Proposition 9.4 (Five lemma). In a commutative ladder of two exact sequences of
five abelian groups, if the outer four vertical maps f₁, f₂, f₄, f₅ are suitably
surjective/bijective/injective (here f₁ surjective, f₂ and f₄ bijective, f₅
injective), then the middle map f₃ is bijective.
A "homology ladder": a commutative ladder of two long exact sequences (with maps
i, p, δ on each row) of graded abelian groups indexed by ℤ, together with
vertical chain maps fMap, gMap, hMap between corresponding groups. This is the
algebraic setup used to apply the five lemma degree-by-degree (Proposition 9.4).

In a long exact ladder, if fA and fB are bijective in every degree, then so is
fC in every degree.
Injectivity half of the 2-out-of-3 principle: if fA and fC are bijective in
every degree, then fB is injective in every degree.
Surjectivity half of the 2-out-of-3 principle (shifted form): if fA and fC are
bijective in every degree, then fB (n+1) is surjective.
In a long exact ladder, if fA and fC are bijective in every degree, then so is
fB in every degree (combining the injectivity and surjectivity halves).
In a long exact ladder, if fB and fC are bijective in every degree, then so is
fA in every degree.
Corollary 9.5 (2-out-of-3 for chain maps). For a map of short exact sequences of
chain complexes presented as a long exact ladder, if any two of the three vertical maps
fA, fB, fC are isomorphisms in homology (bijective in every degree), then so is
the third. The same statement underlies Proposition 9.6 for a map of pairs.
2-out-of-3 principle packaged for HomologyLadder: the three implications among
{fMap, gMap, hMap} saying that bijectivity of any two of the three vertical maps
forces bijectivity of the third.
Forgetting the subspace data: a map of pairs (X, A) → (Y, B) induces a map between
the trivial pairs (X, ∅) → (Y, ∅). Used in the Eilenberg–Steenrod packaging.
