cohomological complex of topological vector spaces (Definition)
Definition 0.1   A cohomological complex of topological vector spaces is a pair $(E^{\bullet}, d)$ where $(E^{\bullet} = (E^q)_{q \in Z} $ is a sequence of topological vector spaces and $d = (d^q)_{q \in Z }$ is a sequence of continuous linear maps $d^q$ from $E^{q}$ into $E^{q+1}$ which satisfy $d^q \circ d^{q+1} = 0$ .

Remarks

  • The dual complex of a cohomological complex $(E^{\bullet}, d)$ of topological vector spaces is the homological complex $(E'_{\bullet}, d')$ , where $(E'_{\bullet} = (E'_q)_{q \in Z}$ with $E'_q$ being the strong dual of $E^q$ and $d' = (d'_q)_{q \in Z}$ , and also with $d'_q $ being the transpose map of $d^q$ .
  • A cohomological complex of topological vector spaces (TVS) is a specific case of a cochain complex, which is the dual of the concept of chain complex.
