LECTURE NOTES 4: CECH COHOMOLOGY 1
... If G is any old abelian group, then we can consider it as a discrete space. In that case, the sheaf U 7β G(U ) = T (U, G) is called the constant sheaf with values in G. The very constant presheaf with values in G is the presheaf G! whose value on an open set U is G!(U ) = G. (Check that this is not ...

Complex Bordism (Lecture 5)
... the cohomology theory MU of complex bordism. In fact, we will show that MU is universal among complexoriented cohomology theories. We begin with a general discussion of orientations. Let X be a topological space and let ΞΆ be a vector bundle of rank n on X. We may assume without loss of generality th ...

Problem Set 5 - Stony Brook Mathematics
... Problem 1. Show that if X is a finite simplicial complex whose underlying topological space is a homology n-manifold, then (a) X consists entirely of n-simplices and their faces, (b) Every (n β 1)-simplex is a face of precisely two n-simplices. Problem 2. Suppose that X is a compact triangulable hom ...
