A package for working with chain complexes over the finite field with two elements and their morphisms.
The homology groups of chain complexes can be calculated and whether a morphism of chain complexes is a quasi-isomorphism.
The type ChainComplex{T}
contains a single field differentials
, a vector of matrices of type T
.
The ith element of the differentials
field represents the ith differential in the chain complex.
The type AlignedChainComplex{T}
can be constructed from a ChainComplex{T}
type.
It finds a filtered basis for each underlying vector space of the chain complex such that
the differentials of this chain complex can be written in block form:
and thus the ith Betti number can be found by the number of zero columns of the ith differential minus the number of non-zero rows of the (i-1)th differential.
