Sep 14, 2012 at 21:56 comment added Louis A This is the first time I've heard the term perturbation in this context, so I don't know what it means for a perturbartion to travel $d$ places, apply the functor to what? To the perturbation? To see what at once? Sorry if I sound clueless but I'm totally unfamiliar with what you're saying
Sep 14, 2012 at 20:44 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez By perturbation I simply mean a change one of the terms in the complex (for example, replacing it with zero)
Sep 14, 2012 at 20:40 comment added Louis A Sorry I'm a bit lost here, what's a perturbation in this context? Thanks for answering
Sep 14, 2012 at 20:18 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez If the domain category has finite global dimension $d$, for example, perturbations in a complex only travel $d$ (or maybe $d+1$?) places. If you go through the steps of constructing a projective resolution of your initial complex and then applying the functor to that, you can see this at once.
Sep 14, 2012 at 20:16 comment added Mariano Suárez-Álvarez As an extreme case, imagine the initial complex has exactly one term! :-)
