The blow-down map in Lie algebroid cohomology

We study the blow-down map in cohomology in the context of real projective blowups of Lie algebroids. Using the blow-down map in cohomology we compute the Lie algebroid cohomology of the blowup of transversals of arbitrary codimension, generalising the Mazzeo-Melrose theorem on b-cohomology. To prove the result we develop a Gysin sequence for Lie algebroids. As another example we use the developed tools to compute the Lie algebroid cohomology of the action Lie algebroid so(3) R³, a result known in Poisson geometry literature. Moreover, we use similar techniques to compute the de Rham cohomology of real projective blowups.
