On the boundary operator of differential modules

On the boundary operator of differential modules EMANUEL SPERNER zum 65. Geburtstag gewidmet By R. J.

We shall give some existence theorems, which we obtained in our research to get a better knowledge of this problem. Section 1. concerns factorization of d in the acyclic case. In Section 2. we discuss graded modules. In Section 3. non graded modules are treated. For definitions we refer to [1], [2] and [3]. w 1. Factorization of d in the acyelic case Theorem 1. Let X be a module over a ring A, (X, d) acyclic, q~l and q~ : X ---> X A-linear and such that then (X, ~x) is a di]erentlal module, which is also acycllc and q~ is a module isomorphism in (X, d) and (X, q~l).
