Points are dual to lines -- the principle of duality in geometry. Singular homology is dual to simplicial homology -- homology is dual. "Always two there are" -- Yoda. Injective is dual to surjective synthesizes bijection or isomorphism (duality). Homology is dual to co-homology. Categories (form, syntax) are dual to sets (substance, semantics) -- category theory.
How can these spaces be Abelian? We are no longer describing a sequence of paths that end where they started; if the cycles can be in any order, then the map from S1 to the space can be discontinuous. You can pick up the pen and draw the cycle piecewise, so to speak. If the idea is to specify which elements constitute the cycle, then why are they Z and not Z mod 2? There's no way to make sense of this as an abelian group.
This is me being silly (because we all know what you meant), but it's not quite true that 'any space with n points' will have singular chain groups isomorphic to Z^n. X needs to be discrete, otherwise you can potentially map the standard 1-simplex into X continuously in ways that cover more than one point, and there are as many ways to do this as there are to chop the unit interval into n pieces - a heck of a lot! If X _does_ have the discrete topology, however, what you say is true.
I guess it's better to say 'colour the unit interval with n colours' than 'chop it into n pieces' since the individual pieces don't have to be connected.
Can someone please explain how these delta basis sets are groups? I get the game we are playing with them, i.e. how they are computed, but I have no clue how they are groups. What is the identity? What is the inverse of a point? What does this group act on? What is the group combinator, i.e. the *+* in those expressions? I keep seeing sets of vertices, but what does it _mean?_ I feel like we waltzed right past that and now I have no hope of understanding homology as a consequence. Also what is a kernel and an image, exactly? I can see where he's getting them, but what is their significance?
It's a Delta complex (see previous lecture for the distinction), but you're right in that the identification of the sides is why there are only three 1-simplicies and one 0-simplex.

The groups are not the groups of these maps, they are groups generated by these maps. That is, given that you have 1 map from Delta to a point, your group would be which is a group generated by 1 element, thus Z.
You are a messenger. ! God sent you to teach us algebraic topology! ❤

I loved the "behatted man" joke!😂
you have taken the joke to a new level!
The hat joke, I'm not sure if it's more of a complex joke than a simplicial one 😂😂😂
What if you try orthogonality on S¹?

For the torus example, the homology of the quotient of a simplicial complex is computed rather than that of a simplicial complex, correct?

The hat joke was good!
If there's only one map from a simplex to a point, then why is the group Z? What are these _groups?_
This a group generated by one element, like Z which is generated by 1
