Differential complexes for local Dirichlet spaces, and non-local-to-local approximations

We study differential $p$-forms on non-smooth and possibly fractal metric measure spaces, endowed with a local Dirichlet form. Using this local Dirichlet form, we prove a result on the localization of antisymmetric functions of $p+1$ variables on diagonal neighborhoods to differential $p$-forms. This result generalizes both the well-known classical localization on smooth Riemannian manifolds and the well-known semigroup approximation for quadratic forms. We observe that a related localization map taking functions into forms is well-defined and induces a chain map from a differential complex of Kolmogorov-Alexander-Spanier type onto a differential complex of deRham type.

A tensor product approach to non-local differential complexes

We study differential complexes of Kolmogorov-Alexander-Spanier type on metric measure spaces associated with unbounded non-local operators, such as operators of fractional Laplacian type. We define Hilbert complexes, observe invariance properties and obtain self-adjoint non-local analogues of Hodge Laplacians. For $d$-regular measures and operators of fractional Laplacian type we provide results on removable sets in terms of Hausdorff measures. We prove a Mayer-Vietoris principle and a Poincaré lemma and verify that in the compact Riemannian manifold case the deRham cohomology can be recovered.
