This analysis is based on the combinatorial formulation given in [R. Gonzalez-Diaz, P. Real. A Combinatorial Method for Computing Steenrod Squares. J. of Pure and Applied Algebra, 139 (1999) 89-108]. As an application, we give here an algorithm for computing cup-$i$ products over integers on a simplicial complex at chain level.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-10-30T09:51:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55S10", "05E99" ], "keywords": [ "simplicial complexes", "computing cocycles", "computing chain level steenrod squares", "face operators", "simplicial sets" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2001math.....10314G" } } }
