(mathematics)
The study of the structure of modules, particularly by means of exact sequences; it has application to the study of a topological space via its homology groups.

The representation theory of Cherednik algebras has strong connections to algebraic geometry, combinatorics, finite dimensional algebra, homological algebra, integrable systems, Lie theory, noncommutative algebra and q calculus; they have been used to confirm conjectures and answer questions in all of these subjects.

For example, set theory was invented in order to help in analysing the convergence behaviour of Fourier series; homological algebra was invented in order to serve algebraic topology, and category theory was first developed with the view of applying it in homological algebra (as well as algebraic topology and algebraic geometry).
