TL;DR: Exact sequences transfer homological information between spaces and allow us to understand the homology of complex spaces via a glueing-together of simpler spaces.

Abstract: Last time we discussed functoriality: how continuous maps between spaces (or pairs of spaces) help transfer homological (or relative homologi cal) information. Today we will see that these maps allow us to see connections between: • the relative homology of a pair of spaces (X,A) and the absolute homology of the two spaces X andA. • the homology of a decomposed space X = X ∪X in terms of the homology of the spacesX, X, andX ∩ X. The second idea in particular is very important, for it will a l ow us to understand the homology of complicated spaces via a glueing-together of si mpler spaces. For both ideas, the key concept is that all of the relevant homology gr oups fit together into a long exact sequence; we begin with an abstract description o f this algebraic concept, before moving on to more concrete examples.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Galois group Gk is proposed as a non-commutative generalization of homotopy and homology theories and non-linear boundary operation for which a geometric interpretation in terms of the restriction to lowerdimensional plane is proposed.

TL;DR: In this article , an equivariant Tamagawa number formula for appropriate Euler product completions of the special value Θ EK/F (0) of a G-equivariant motivic L-function was given for all positive integers m ∈ Z ≥ 0 when E is a Drinfeld module.
