Künneth formulas for path homology

We study the path homology groups with coefficients in a general ring $R$, and show that such groups are always finitely generated. We further prove two versions of Eilenberg–Zilber theorem for the Cartesian product and the join of two regular path complexes over a commutative ring $R$. Hence Künneth formulas are derived for the two cases over a PID. Note that this generalizes the related results proved for regular path complexes over a field $K$ in [7], whose proofs can not be carried over here parallelly.
