De Rham Cohomology, Homotopy Invariance And The Mayer-Vietoris Sequence, Stacey Elizabeth Cox
De Rham Cohomology, Homotopy Invariance And The Mayer-Vietoris Sequence, Stacey Elizabeth Cox
Electronic Theses, Projects, and Dissertations
This thesis will discuss the de Rham cohomology, homotopy invariance and the Mayer-Vietoris sequence. First the necessary information for this thesis is discussed such as differential p-forms, the exterior derivative as well as pull back of a map. The de Rham cohomology is defined explicitly, some properties of the de Rham cohomology will also be discussed. It will be shown that the de Rham cohomology is in fact a homotopy invariant as well as some examples using homotopy invariance are provided. Finally the Mayer-Vietoris sequence will be established, an example of using the Mayer-Vietoris sequence to compute the de …
An Investigation Of Kurosh's Theorem, Keith Anthony Earl
An Investigation Of Kurosh's Theorem, Keith Anthony Earl
Theses Digitization Project
The purpose of this project will be an exposition of the Kurosh Theorem and the necessary and suffcient condition that A must be algebraic and satisfy a P.I. to be locally finite.
The Fundamental Group And Van Kampen's Theorem, Aaron Christopher Thomas
The Fundamental Group And Van Kampen's Theorem, Aaron Christopher Thomas
Theses Digitization Project
This thesis deals with the field of algebraic topology. Basic topological facts are addressed including open and closed sets, continuity, homeomorphisms, and path connectedness as well as discussing Van Kampen's Theorem in detail.
The Universal Coefficient Theorem For Cohomology, Michael Anthony Rosas
The Universal Coefficient Theorem For Cohomology, Michael Anthony Rosas
Theses Digitization Project
This project is an expository survey of the Universal Coefficient Theorem for Cohomology. Algebraic preliminaries, homology, and cohomology are discussed prior to the proof of the theorem.
