Homotopy category of chain complexes
In homological algebra in mathematics, the homotopy category ''K(A)'' of chain complexes in an additive category ''A'' is a framework for working with chain homotopies and homotopy equivalences. It lies intermediate between the category of chain complexes ''Kom(A)'' of ''A'' and the derived category ''D(A)'' of ''A'' when ''A'' is abelian; unlike the former it is a triangulated category, and unlike the latter its formation does not require that ''A'' is abelian. Philosophically, while ''D(A)'' makes isomorphisms of any maps of complexes that are quasi-isomorphisms in ''Kom(A)'', ''K(A)'' does so only for those that are quasi-isomorphisms for a "good reason", namely actually having an inverse up to homotopy equivalence. Thus, ''K(A)'' is more understandable than ''D(A)''.
== Definitions ==
Let ''A'' be an additive category. The homotopy category ''K(A)'' is based on the following definition: if we have complexes ''A'', ''B'' and maps ''f'', ''g'' from ''A'' to ''B'', a chain homotopy from ''f'' to ''g'' is a collection of maps h^n \colon A^n \to B^ (''not'' a map of complexes) such that
:f^n - g^n = d_B^ h^n + h^ d_A^n, or simply f - g = d_B h + h d_A.
This can be depicted as:
:
We also say that ''f'' and ''g'' are chain homotopic, or that f - g is null-homotopic or homotopic to 0. It is clear from the definition that the maps of complexes which are null-homotopic form a group under addition.
The homotopy category of chain complexes ''K(A)'' is then defined as follows: its objects are the same as the objects of ''Kom(A)'', namely chain complexes. Its morphisms are "maps of complexes modulo homotopy": that is, we define an equivalence relation
:f \sim g\ if ''f'' is homotopic to ''g''
and define
:\operatorname_(A, B) = \operatorname_(A,B)/\sim
to be the quotient by this relation. It is clearer that this results in an additive category if one notes that this is the same as taking the quotient by the subgroup of null-homotopic maps.
The following variants of the definition are also widely used: if one takes only ''bounded-below'' (''An=0 for n<<0''), ''bounded-above'' (''An=0 for n>>0''), or ''bounded'' (''An=0 for |n|>>0'') complexes instead of unbounded ones, one speaks of the ''bounded-below homotopy category'' etc. They are denoted by ''K+(A)'', ''K(A)'' and ''Kb(A)'', respectively.
A morphism f : A \rightarrow B which is an isomorphism in ''K(A)'' is called a homotopy equivalence. In detail, this means there is another map g : B \rightarrow A, such that the two compositions are homotopic to the identities: f \circ g \sim Id_B and
g \circ f \sim Id_A.
The name "homotopy" comes from the fact that homotopic maps of topological spaces induce homotopic (in the above sense) maps of singular chains.
