Introduction
Homological algebra is a branch of mathematics that deals with the study of algebraic structures using the tools of homology and cohomology. Derived categories, on the other hand, provide a framework for studying derived functors and derived equivalences between categories. The combination of homological algebra and derived categories has proven to be a powerful tool in modern mathematics, with applications in algebraic geometry, representation theory, and algebraic topology.
This thesis aims to explore the fundamentals of homological algebra and derived categories, as well as their applications in various mathematical fields. The following chapters will provide a comprehensive overview of the subject, starting with an introduction to the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, and structure of the thesis. This will be followed by a literature review, research methodology, discussion of findings, and a conclusion summarizing the project.
