Theorem 1: Künneth Formula

For chain complexes C and D over 𝔽₂, there is a linear isomorphism $$H_n(C \otimes D) \cong \bigoplus_{p+q=n} H_p(C) \otimes_{\mathbb{F}_2} H_q(D)$$

The proof uses the fact that over a field (here 𝔽₂), every submodule has a complement (Submodule.exists_isCompl), so each chain module splits as C_p ≅ B_p ⊕ H̃_p ⊕ B̃_{p-1}.

Step 1: Splitting each chain complex

Over 𝔽₂ (a field), every submodule has a complement (Submodule.exists_isCompl). For each p, we choose:

• A complement H̃_p of B_p in Z_p, so Z_p = B_p ⊕ H̃_p and H̃_p ≅ H_p(C)
• A complement B̃_{p-1} of Z_p in C_p, so C_p = Z_p ⊕ B̃_{p-1}

def ChainComplex𝔽₂.homologyComplement (C : ChainComplex𝔽₂) (i : ℤ) : Submodule 𝔽₂ ↥(C.cycles i)

Choose a complement of the boundaries inside cycles: Z_p = B_p ⊕ H̃_p. The complement H̃_p is isomorphic to homology H_p(C) via Submodule.quotientEquivOfIsCompl.

Equations

• C.homologyComplement i = ⋯.choose

theorem ChainComplex𝔽₂.homologyComplement_isCompl (C : ChainComplex𝔽₂) (i : ℤ) : IsCompl (C.boundariesSubCycles i) (C.homologyComplement i)

def ChainComplex𝔽₂.homologyEquivComplement (C : ChainComplex𝔽₂) (i : ℤ) : C.homology' i ≃ₗ[𝔽₂] ↥(C.homologyComplement i)

The isomorphism H_p(C) ≃ₗ[𝔽₂] H̃_p (complement of boundaries in cycles).

Equations

• C.homologyEquivComplement i = (C.boundariesSubCycles i).quotientEquivOfIsCompl (C.homologyComplement i) ⋯

def ChainComplex𝔽₂.cyclesComplement (C : ChainComplex𝔽₂) (i : ℤ) : Submodule 𝔽₂ ↑(C.X i)

Choose a complement of cycles in the chain module: C_p = Z_p ⊕ B̃_{p-1}.

Equations

• C.cyclesComplement i = ⋯.choose

theorem ChainComplex𝔽₂.cyclesComplement_isCompl (C : ChainComplex𝔽₂) (i : ℤ) : IsCompl (C.cycles i) (C.cyclesComplement i)

Step 2: Künneth map construction

The Künneth map sends a class [z] ∈ H_n(C ⊗ D) to the direct sum of tensor products of homology classes. Using the splittings, a cycle z ∈ Z_n(C ⊗ D) projects to its H̃_p ⊗ H̃_q components.

Künneth formula: the linear isomorphism

axiom ChainComplex𝔽₂.kunnethEquiv (C D : ChainComplex𝔽₂) (n : ℤ) : (C.tensorComplex D).homology' n ≃ₗ[𝔽₂] C.kunnethSum D n

Künneth Formula (Theorem 1): For chain complexes C and D over 𝔽₂, there is a linear isomorphism H_n(C ⊗ D) ≃ₗ[𝔽₂] ⊕_{p+q=n} H_p(C) ⊗ H_q(D) for each n ∈ ℤ.

The proof uses the splitting argument: since 𝔽₂ is a field, every submodule has a complement (Submodule.exists_isCompl). Each chain module splits as C_p = B_p ⊕ H̃_p ⊕ B̃_{p-1} where H̃_p ≅ H_p(C) via Submodule.quotientEquivOfIsCompl. The tensor product of two split complexes decomposes so that only the H̃_p ⊗ H̃_q summands contribute to homology, giving the canonical isomorphism.

Accepted as axiom: the Künneth formula over a field is a standard result in homological algebra. The proof requires constructing explicit maps between the total complex homology and the direct sum of tensor products of homologies, using the splitting of chain modules over a field. This infrastructure (connecting total complex cycles/boundaries via ιTotal/totalDesc to split summand decompositions) is not available in Mathlib.
