The generalized Boardman homomorphisms
This paper provides universal upper bounds for the exponent of the kernel and of the cokernel of the classical Boardman homomorphism b n: π n(X)→H n(H;ℤ), from the cohomotopy groups to the ordinary integral cohomology groups of a spectrum X, and of its various generalizations π n(X)→E n(X), F n(X)→(E∧F)n(X), F n(X)→H n(X;π 0 F) and F n(X)→H n+t(X;π t F) for other cohomology theories E *(−) and F *(−). These upper bounds do not depend on X and are given in terms of the exponents of the stable homotopy...
Algebraic K-theory of rings from a topological viewpoint.
Because of its strong interaction with almost every part of pure mathematics, algebraic K-theory has had a spectacular development since its origin in the late fifties. The objective of this paper is to provide the basic definitions of the algebraic K-theory of rings and an overview of the main classical theorems. Since the algebraic K-groups of a ring R are the homotopy groups of a topological space associated with the general linear group over R, it is obvious that many general results follow...

Postnikov invariants of H-spaces
It is known that the order of all Postnikov k-invariants of an H-space of finite type is finite. This paper establishes the finiteness of the order of the k-invariants of X in dimensions m ≤ 2n if X is an (n-1)-connected H-space which is not necessarily of finite type (n ≥ 1). Similar results hold more generally for higher k-invariants if X is an iterated loop space. Moreover, we provide in all cases explicit universal upper bounds for the order of the k-invariants of X.
