Singular prism construction #
Builds the cylinder associated to a continuous homotopy after applying the singular simplicial-set functor. The endpoint identities connect this construction to the algebraic simplicial-homotopy and chain-homotopy machinery used by the singular-homology homotopy-invariance proof.
The singular simplicial set functor preserves limits, being a right adjoint
(sSetTopAdj : SSet.toTop ⊣ TopCat.toSSet).
The const-valued continuous map X → I at a point t of the interval.
Equations
- SphereOddDegree.constI X t = TopCat.ofHom (ContinuousMap.const (↑X) t)
Instances For
The standard topological 1-simplex, viewed (via
Convexity.StdSimplex.homeomorphI) as a continuous map into the interval.
Equations
- SphereOddDegree.edgeCM = { toFun := ⇑Convexity.StdSimplex.homeomorphI, continuous_toFun := SphereOddDegree.edgeCM._proof_1 }
Instances For
The singular edge of the interval: the simplicial 1-simplex of Sing I
classified by the homeomorphism Δ¹_top ≃ₜ I.
Equations
Instances For
The const-valued simplicial map onto the j-th vertex of Δ[1].
Equations
Instances For
A ContinuousMap.Homotopy between f.hom and g.hom, repackaged as a
single morphism out of the categorical product X ⨯ I. On a point p it is
H (snd p, fst p), i.e. H with its interval coordinate first.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
The singular cylinder map of a homotopy H:
Sing X × Δ[1] ⟶ Sing Y, built from the singular edge of the interval, the
product-preservation isomorphism Sing X × Sing I ≅ Sing (X × I), and Sing H.
Equations
- One or more equations did not get rendered due to their size.
Instances For
The j-th endpoint section Sing X ⟶ Sing X × Δ[1].
Equations
Instances For
At interval coordinate 0, the repackaged homotopy recovers f.
At interval coordinate 1, the repackaged homotopy recovers g.
The 0-vertex of Δ[1], pushed along the singular edge, is the const-valued
singular map at 0 ∈ I.
The 1-vertex of Δ[1], pushed along the singular edge, is the const-valued
singular map at 1 ∈ I.
Key reduction: the product-comparison inverse turns the lifted const-valued
section into Sing of the lifted topological section.
Endpoint identity (start). The singular cylinder restricts to Sing f
along the start inclusion.
Endpoint identity (end). The singular cylinder restricts to Sing g
along the end inclusion.
