Abstract
We solve some computational problems for triangulated closed three-dimensional manifolds using groups of simplicial homology and cohomology modulo 2. Two efficient algorithms for computing intersection numbers of 1- and 2-dimensional cycles are developed. Using these algorithms it is possible to construct a basis of the cohomology group from a given basis of the homology group of complementary dimension.
