Homology manifold

In mathematics, a homology manifold (or generalized manifold)is a locally compact topological space X that looks locally like a topological manifold from the point of view of homology theory. (Wikipedia).

Computing homology groups | Algebraic Topology | NJ Wildberger

The definition of the homology groups H_n(X) of a space X, say a simplicial complex, is quite abstract: we consider the complex of abelian groups generated by vertices, edges, 2-dim faces etc, then define boundary maps between them, then take the quotient of kernels mod boundaries at each

Introduction to Homotopy Theory- PART 1: UNIVERSAL CONSTRUCTIONS

The goal of this series is to develop homotopy theory from a categorical perspective, alongside the theory of model categories. We do this with the hope of eventually developing stable homotopy theory, a personal goal a passion of mine. I'm going to follow nLab's notes, but I hope to add t

Matthew Hedden - Irreducible homology S1xS2's which aren't zero surgeries on a knot

June 20, 2018 - This talk was part of the 2018 RTG mini-conference Low-dimensional topology and its interactions with symplectic geometry I'll discuss constructions of manifolds with the homology of S^1xS^2 which don't arise as Dehn surgery on a knot in S^3. Our examples have weight one

Contact invariants in sutured monopole and instanton homology - Steven Sivek

Steven Sivek University of Warwick March 5, 2014 Kronheimer and Mrowka recently used monopole Floer homology to define an invariant of sutured manifolds, following work of Juhász in Heegaard Floer homology. In this talk, I will construct an invariant of a contact structure on a 3-manifold
