Cohomology-Homotopy operator etc.,


Homotopy equivalent manifolds have isomorphic de Rahm cohomology groups.

Suppose F,G:MN are smooth homotopic maps. Suppose ω is a k form on N and h be an homotopic operator that maps from space of k forms on N to k1 forms on M given by
d(hω)+h(dω)=G(ω)F(ω)
This means h:Ak(N)Ak1(M).

This homotopy is used as a stepping stone for proving homotopy equivalent manifolds have isomorphic homology groups.

I shall write in detail the motivation and how this is used later.

There is deRahm theorem proof of which I shall blog later.
