Abstract

We consider an additive group structure in digital images and introduce the commutator in digital images. Then we calculate the hypercrossed complex pairings which generates a normal subgroup in dimension 2 and in dimension 3 by using 8-adjacency and 26-adjacency.

1. Introduction

In this paper we denote the set of integers by . Then represents the set of lattice points in Euclidean -dimensional spaces. A finite subset of with an adjacency relation is called a digital image.

Definition 1 (see [1, 2]). Consider the following.(1)Two points and in are 2-adjacent if .(2)Two points and in are 8-adjacent if they are distinct and differ by at most 1 in each coordinate.(3)Two points and in are 4-adjacent if they are 8-adjacent and differ by exactly one coordinate.(4)Two points and in are 26-adjacent if they are distinct and differ by at most 1 in each coordinate.(5)Two points and in are 18-adjacent if they are 26-adjacent and differ in at most two coordinates.(6)Two points and in are 6-adjacent if they are 18-adjacent and differ by exactly one coordinate.

Definition 2. Let be a subset of a digital image. A simplicial group in digital images consists of a sequence of groups and collections of group homomorphisms and , , that satisfies the following axioms:

Definition 3. Given a simplicial group with -adjacency, the Moore complex of is the chain complex defined by with induced from by restriction.
