Kunneth formulas for Cotor
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: We investigate the question of how to compute the cotensor product, and more generally the derived cotensor (i.e., Cotor) groups, of a tensor product of comodules. In particular, we determine the conditions under which there is a K"{u}nneth formula for Cotor. We show that there is a simple K"{u}nneth theorem for Cotor groups if and only if an appropriate coefficient comodule has trivial coaction. This result is an application of a spectral sequence we construct for computing Cotor of a tensor product of comodules. Finally, for certain families of nontrivial comodules which are especially topologically natural, we work out necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a K"{u}nneth formula for the th Cotor group, i.e., the cotensor product. We give topological applications in the form of consequences for the -term of the Adams spectral sequence of a smash product of spectra, and the Hurewicz image of a smash product of spectra.
