Homological techniques for the analysis of the dimension of triangular spline spaces

The spline space C"k^r(@D) attached to a subdivided domain @D of R^d is the vector space of functions of class C^r which are polynomials of degree ==4r+1, and the same method we use in this proof yields the dimension straightaway for many other cases.
