Cotensor products of modules

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let C be a coalgebra over a field k and A its dual algebra. The category of C-comodules is equivalent to a category of A-modules. We use this to interpret the cotensor product M square N of two comodules in terms of the appropriate Hochschild cohomology of the A-bimodule M otimes N, when A is finite-dimensional, profinite, graded or differential-graded. The main applications are to Galois cohomology, comodules over the Steenrod algebra, and the homology of induced fibrations.
