摘要
We introduce a homology theory with supports and with coefficients in a sheaf. It has a very explicit description of the chains in terms of a triangulation of an ambient space, making the theory useful for integration purposes. We prove a Poincare Duality Theorem that states that our homology modules are isomorphic to the classical sheaf cohomology modules with supports. This theorem is a main ingredient in the proof of a criterion on the vanishing of real principal value integrals in terms of cohomology. We briefly explain how real principal value integrals appear as residues of poles of distributions If IS and as coefficients of asymptotic expansions of oscillating integrals.
