Spectral SequencesAllen HatcherThis is a preliminary and incomplete version of an extra fifthchapter for myAl-gebraic Topologytextbook. Its aim is to give an introduction to Spectral Sequences asthey arise in algebraic topology. The rather lengthy first section of the chapter is de-voted to the Serre Spectral sequence and some of its main applications. After this, thesecond section gives a short introduction to the more specialized Adams Spectral se-quence, which is geared toward computing stable homotopy groups, especially stablehomotopy groups of spheres. The chapter then concludes withseveral independentsections on related topics and other Spectral Sequences . Here is a Table of Contentsfor the The Serre Spectral sequence .. 520 Exact Couples Serre Spectral sequence for Homology Classes and Further Properties Serre Spectral sequence for Cohomology Homotopy Groups of Spaces of Eilenberg-MacLane Spaces Homotopy Groups of Spheres The Adams Spectral sequence .
The first spectral sequence that appeared in algebraic topology, and still the most important one, is the Serre spectral sequence which relates the homology or cohomol-ogy groups of the fiber, base, and total space of a fibration. The homotopy groups of these three spaces fit into a long exact sequence, but for homology or cohomology the
