There is much to be gained however, by using the more sophisticated concept of cell (CW) complex. Even for simple computations, this concept ordinarily allows us to bypass much tedious algebra and often gives geometric insight into the homology and homotopy theory of a space. For example, the easiest way to calculate and interpret the homology of Cpn, complex projective n-space, is by means of a cellular decomposition with only n+ 1 cells. Also, by a suitable construction we can "realize" the sin gular complex of a space as a CW complex and perhaps thus give a more geometric basis for some arguments involving singular homology theory for general spaces and a more concrete basis for singular ho motopy type. As a fInal example, if we start with the category of sim plicial complexes and maps, common topological constructions such as the formation of product spaces, identifIcation spaces, and adjunction spaces lead us often into the category of CW complexes. These topics, among others, are usually not treated thorou | 出版日期 | Textbook 1969 | 关键词 | algebra; geometry; homology; homotopy; topology | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-6254-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4684-6256-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-6254-8 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1969 |
