Opposite categories of complexes #
Given a preadditive category V, the opposite of its category of chain complexes is equivalent to
the category of cochain complexes of objects in Vᵒᵖ. We define this equivalence, and another
analogous equivalence (for a general category of homological complexes with a general
complex shape).
We then show that when V is abelian, if C is a homological complex, then the homology of
op(C) is isomorphic to op of the homology of C (and the analogous result for unop).
Implementation notes #
It is convenient to define both op and opSymm; this is because given a complex shape c,
c.symm.symm is not defeq to c.
