To apply surgery theory to the problem of classifying pairs of closed manifolds, it is necessary to know the subgroup of the group generated by those elements which are realized by normal maps to a pair of closed manifolds. This closely relates to the surgery problem for a closed manifold and to the computation of the assembly map. In this paper we completely determine such subgroups for many cases of Browder-Livesay pairs of closed manifolds. Moreover, very explicit results are obtained in the...
We show that for n ≥ 3 the symplectic group Sp(n) is as a 2-compact group determined up to isomorphism by the isomorphism type of its maximal torus normalizer. This allows us to determine the integral homotopy type of Sp(n) among connected finite loop spaces with maximal torus.
We prove a finiteness result for the systolic area of groups. Namely, we show that there are only finitely many possible unfree factors of fundamental groups of -complexes whose systolic area is uniformly bounded. We also show that the number of freely indecomposable such groups grows at least exponentially with the bound on the systolic area. Furthermore, we prove a uniform systolic inequality for all -complexes with unfree fundamental group that improves the previously known bounds in this dimension....
We consider Taylor approximation for functors from the small category of finite pointed
sets to modules and give an explicit description for the homology of the layers
of the Taylor tower. These layers are shown to be fibrant objects in a suitable closed
model category structure. Explicit calculations are presented in characteristic zero
including an application to higher order Hochschild homology. A spectral sequence for the
homology of the homotopy fibres of this approximation is provided.
We study the Taylor towers of the nth symmetric and exterior power functors, Spⁿ and Λⁿ. We obtain a description of the layers of the Taylor towers, and , in terms of the first terms in the Taylor towers of and for t < n. The homology of these first terms is related to the stable derived functors (in the sense of Dold and Puppe) of and . We use stable derived functor calculations of Dold and Puppe to determine the lowest nontrivial homology groups for and .
