A new method for computing the bases of two-dimensional homology groups of polyhedrons in the three-dimensional space has been developed. Its idea goes back to the Alexander-Pontryagin theorem. In contrast to the standard approach, our algorithm does not use matrices. Moreover, the basic cycles found with the use of this approach have a clear geometrical meaning. |
