A norm for the cohomology of 2-complexes

نویسنده

چکیده

We introduce a norm on the real 1-cohomology of finite 2complexes determined by the Euler characteristics of graphs on these complexes. We also introduce twisted Alexander-Fox polynomials of groups and show that they give rise to norms on the real 1-cohomology of groups. Our main theorem states that for a finite 2-complex X , the norm on H(X ;R) determined by graphs on X majorates the Alexander-Fox norms derived from π1(X). AMS Classification 57M20; 57M05

A homological estimate for the Thurston norm

We establish a new homological lower bound for the Thurston norm on 1-cohomology of 3-manifolds. This generalizes previous results of C. McMullen, S. Harvey, and the author. We also establish an analogous lower bound for 1-cohomology of 2-dimensional CW-complexes. AMS Classification 57M27, 57M20, 57M05

Generalized Local Homology Modules of Complexes

The theory of local homology modules was initiated by Matlis in 1974. It is a dual version of the theory of local cohomology modules. Mohammadi and Divaani-Aazar (2012) studied the connection between local homology and Gorenstein flat modules by using Gorenstein flat resolutions. In this paper, we introduce generalized local homology modules for complexes and we give several ways for computing ...

ON THE VANISHING OF DERIVED LOCAL HOMOLOGY MODULES

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $fa$ anideal of $R$ and $mathcal{D}(R)$ denote the derived category of$R$-modules. For any homologically bounded complex $X$, we conjecture that$sup {bf L}Lambda^{fa}(X)leq$ mag$_RX$. We prove thisin several cases. This generalize the main result of Hatamkhani and Divaani-Aazar cite{HD} for complexes.

Module cohomology group of inverse semigroup algebras

Let $S$ be an inverse semigroup and let $E$ be its subsemigroup of idempotents. In this paper we define the $n$-th module cohomology group of Banach algebras and show that the first module cohomology group $HH^1_{ell^1(E)}(ell^1(S),ell^1(S)^{(n)})$ is zero, for every odd $ninmathbb{N}$. Next, for a Clifford semigroup $S$ we show that $HH^2_{ell^1(E)}(ell^1(S),ell^1(S)^{(n)})$ is a Banach sp...

Digital cohomology groups of certain minimal surfaces

In this study, we compute simplicial cohomology groups with different coefficients of a connected sum of certain minimal simple surfaces by using the universal coefficient theorem for cohomology groups. The method used in this paper is a different way to compute digital cohomology groups of minimal simple surfaces. We also prove some theorems related to degree properties of a map on digital sph...
