2 Basic definitions Exact sequences Let X, Y, Z be F -spaces. A short exact sequence is a diagram ( ) 0 Y i Z q X 0, where i : Y Z is a one-to-one operator with a closed range (embedding) and q : Z X is a surjective operator such that im(i) = ker(q).

3 Basic definitions Exact sequences Let X, Y, Z be F -spaces. A short exact sequence is a diagram ( ) 0 Y i Z q X 0, where i : Y Z is a one-to-one operator with a closed range (embedding) and q : Z X is a surjective operator such that im(i) = ker(q). In other words, Z contains a closed subspace Y 1 Y (isomorphically) such that the quotient space Z/Y 1 X. Tomasz Kochanek (University of Silesia) Non-trivial extensions of c 0 2 / 13

4 Basic definitions Exact sequences Let X, Y, Z be F -spaces. A short exact sequence is a diagram ( ) 0 Y i Z q X 0, where i : Y Z is a one-to-one operator with a closed range (embedding) and q : Z X is a surjective operator such that im(i) = ker(q). In other words, Z contains a closed subspace Y 1 Y (isomorphically) such that the quotient space Z/Y 1 X. We then say that Z is a twisted sum of Y and X (in this order!), or that Z is an extension of X by Y. Tomasz Kochanek (University of Silesia) Non-trivial extensions of c 0 2 / 13

5 Basic definitions Equivalent exact sequences In fact, twisted sums are identified via the following natural equivalence relation: Tomasz Kochanek (University of Silesia) Non-trivial extensions of c 0 3 / 13

6 Basic definitions Equivalent exact sequences In fact, twisted sums are identified via the following natural equivalence relation: We say that two exact sequences of F -spaces 0 Y Z 1 X 0 and 0 Y Z 2 X 0 are equivalent, if there exists an operator T : Z 1 Z 2 such that the diagram is commutative. 0 Y Z 1 X 0 0 Y Z 2 X 0 T Tomasz Kochanek (University of Silesia) Non-trivial extensions of c 0 3 / 13

7 Basic definitions Splitting of exact sequences For any two F -spaces X and Y we have always the trivial exact sequence: ( ) 0 Y Y X X 0 produced by the direct sum, jointly with the natural embedding and projection. Tomasz Kochanek (University of Silesia) Non-trivial extensions of c 0 4 / 13

8 Basic definitions Splitting of exact sequences For any two F -spaces X and Y we have always the trivial exact sequence: ( ) 0 Y Y X X 0 produced by the direct sum, jointly with the natural embedding and projection. We say that exact sequence ( ) splits if and only if it is equivalent to ( ). Tomasz Kochanek (University of Silesia) Non-trivial extensions of c 0 4 / 13

9 Basic definitions Splitting of exact sequences For any two F -spaces X and Y we have always the trivial exact sequence: ( ) 0 Y Y X X 0 produced by the direct sum, jointly with the natural embedding and projection. We say that exact sequence ( ) splits if and only if it is equivalent to ( ). Equivalently: the copy i(y ) of Y, inside Z, is complemented in Z.

10 Basic definitions Splitting of exact sequences For any two F -spaces X and Y we have always the trivial exact sequence: ( ) 0 Y Y X X 0 produced by the direct sum, jointly with the natural embedding and projection. We say that exact sequence ( ) splits if and only if it is equivalent to ( ). Equivalently: the copy i(y ) of Y, inside Z, is complemented in Z. In such a case we must have Z X Y.
