contracting homotopies of Koszul resolution of $\mathbb{C}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ and $\mathbb{C}_{q}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$
Let $A : = \mathbb{C}[x_1, \ldots, x_n],$ $A_q : =\mathbb{C}_q[x_1, \ldots, x_n] = \mathbb{C} \langle x_1, \ldots, x_n \rangle / (x_ix_j = q x_jx_i)$.
By Koszul resolution I mean
$$\ldots \to A \...

Cohomology of derived tensor product of complexes and Künneth spectral sequence
Let $R$ be any commutative ring, let $V^\bullet$ and $W^\bullet$ be (co)chain complexes of $R$-modules, indexed cohomologically. We can also assume that they have both cohomology in nonpositive ...

Model categories and chain complexes
I'm fairly new to thinking about homological algebra and chain complexes in their own right, i.e outside of isolated examples such as for constructing simplicial homology, or for computing $Ext$ ...

Hermitian structure for complexes of vector bundles
Does it exist a different notion of Hermitian metric for complexes of vector bundles, besides the obvious data of a metric for each vector bundle?
Same question for connections. In particular is there ...

Singular chains generated by manifolds with corners --- does it really work?
Usually we define singular homology via the complex of singular chains:
$$C_\ast(X)=\bigoplus_{n\geq 0}\mathbb Z\langle\sigma:\Delta^n\to X\rangle$$
where the right hand side denotes the free abelian ...

Reference Request: The Categorification of $\mathbb{Z}$ as cochain complexes of vector spaces
Just as the fact that a categorification of $\mathbb{N}$ is the category of finite dimensional vector spaces, a categorification of $\mathbb{Z}$ (in my mind) is the category of bounded cochain ...
