Abstract:We describe several geometric interpretations of H 2 (X ) when X is a trisected 4-manifold. The main insight is that, by analogy with Hodge theory and sheaf cohomology in algebraic geometry, classes in H 2 (X ) can be usefully interpreted as "(1,1)"-classes. First, we reinterpret work of Feller, Klug, Schirmer and Zemke and of Florens and Moussard on the (co)homology of trisected 4-manifolds in terms of the Čech cohomology of presheaves on X , in both the case of singular and de Rham cohomology. We then discus… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
