Coxeter matrix of Dyck path
I am trying to understand Gjergji Zaimi's answer in What are the periodic Dyck paths?. In the third paragraph he claims that
Next, we define the matrix $X_D$
similarly to the Cartan matrix except we ...

Derived tensor products and regular sequences
Let $R \to A$ be a homomorphism of commutative rings, and let $x\in R$ be an element (or a sequence of elements in $R$, if you prefer) that is both $R$-regular and $A$-regular. Then we have
$$
A\...

Theory of $n$-truncated $A_\infty$ categories/functors?
One can define certain higher categorical truncations. For example, a discussion from the quasi-categories point of view can be found in HTT 5.5.6.
On the other hand, as a model of linear $\infty$-...

Generalization of Koszul cohomology for wedge product with a fixed q-form: literature and references?
Let $A$ be a commutative ring. For an odd positive integer $q$ and an integer $p$ in the range $1 \leq p \leq q$, consider the cochain complex:
$0 \to \Lambda^p(A^N) \to \Lambda^{p+q}(A^N) \to \cdots \...

Tate cohomology as a derived functor
I am trying to understand in what sense Tate cohomology may be regarded as the co-fibre of the norm map, from the perspective of derived functors.
Say $G$ is a finite group and $M$ is a $G$-module ...

Baer sums of extensions
Apologies in advance if this question is too basic, I looked briefly through Weibel and the stacks project and couldn't find any relevant reference.
Let $\mathcal{A}$ denote an abelian category, and ...

Problem understanding the cup-products for the modified cohomology in David Harari's book "Galois Cohomology and Class Field Theory"
I'm recently reading the very beginning of David Harari's book Galois Cohomology and Class Field Theory, and I met a problem with the definition of cup-products for the modified cohomology.
Before ...

Selmer complex and total complex
Thanks for your reading. I'm studying Selmer complex book by Jan Nekovar. For the definition of Selmer complex I meet a problem.
In the introduction(page 9, 0.8.0) the author gives us a definition of ...

Leray spectral sequence for étale homology
Let $X$, $Y$, $Z$ be quasi-projective varieties over an algebraically closed field $k$, $f: X \to Y$ and $g: Z \to X$ proper (even projective) maps with $f$ smooth, and $h: Z \to Y$ their composite. ...

Left exact functor $F$ preserves quasi-isomorphism between $F$-acyclics
In this math overflow page, the poster gives a proof of the statement "an additive left exact functor $F$ preserves quasi-isomorphisms between $F$-acyclic objects." I'm having trouble ...

Grothendieck spectral sequence (cohomology version) for posets with functor coefficient
In this paper, Quillen mentioned a spectral sequence as follows.
Let $f:X\to Y$ is a poset map and $\mathcal{F}:X\to Ab$, where $Ab$ is the category of abelian groups, a functor which is contravariant ...

Projective cover (minimal) for (derived)complete modules over Noetherian local rings exist?
Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. Let $M$ be an $R$-module which is $\mathfrak m$-adically derived complete. Then, does there exist a free $R$-module $F$ and a surjective $...

Homotopy between posets
This is entirely a new area for me and I apologise in advance if the questions are silly.
In Quillen's paper "Homotopy properties of the posets of non-trivial $p$-subgroup of a group" (see ...
