Computing the Direct Limit

The motivation for this post is to go through some details necessary in the formal definition of Cech Cohomology.  In that definition, we come across the notion of the direct limit of a directed system.  This post will serve to: Explicitly write out some of the details needed to see why the direct limit of a directed … Continue reading Computing the Direct Limit

Why can we add to both sides of an equation?

(Originally written for my Intro to Homological Algebra Summer Seminar Group at SJC) One of the first things you learn in Algebra, is how to manipulate equations.  Given the equation: $latex 2x + 3 = 4,$ we quickly learned how to subtract 3 from both sides of the equation.  In this post, I would like to go … Continue reading Why can we add to both sides of an equation?

Quotients of Groups: Where 2+3 = 1.

(Meant for my Intro to Homological Algebra Summer Seminar Group at SJC)   Last time we met we discussed groups, where we can recall that A group, $latex G$, is a set with a binary operation $latex \mu: G \times G \to G$ which is associative, has an identity, and has inverse elements. Example: $latex \mathbb{Z} … Continue reading Quotients of Groups: Where 2+3 = 1.
