The alternating face map complex of a simplicial object in a preadditive category #

THIS FILE IS SYNCHRONIZED WITH MATHLIB4. Any changes to this file require a corresponding PR to mathlib4.

We construct the alternating face map complex, as a functor alternating_face_map_complex : simplicial_object C ⥤ chain_complex C ℕ for any preadditive category C. For any simplicial object X in C, this is the homological complex ... → X_2 → X_1 → X_0 where the differentials are alternating sums of faces.

The dual version alternating_coface_map_complex : cosimplicial_object C ⥤ cochain_complex C ℕ is also constructed.

We also construct the natural transformation inclusion_of_Moore_complex : normalized_Moore_complex A ⟶ alternating_face_map_complex A when A is an abelian category.
