Some non-trivial PL knots whose complements are homotopy circles
We show that there exist non-trivial piecewise linear (PL) knots with isolated singularities , n ≥ 5, whose complements have the homotopy type of a circle. This is in contrast to the case of smooth, PL locally flat, and topological locally flat knots, for which it is known that if the complement has the homotopy type of a circle, then the knot is trivial.

Stratified model categories
The fourth axiom of a model category states that given a commutative square of maps, say i: A → B, g: B → Y, f: A → X, and p: X → Y such that gi = pf, if i is a cofibration, p a fibration and either i or p is a weak equivalence, then a lifting (i.e. a map h: B → X such that ph = g and hi = f) exists. We show that for many model categories the two conditions that either i or p above is a weak equivalence can be embedded in an infinite number of conditions which imply the existence of a lifting (roughly,...

Sur certaines équivalences d'homotopies
On sait qu’il y a 144 classes d’homotopies d’applications de dans lui-même dont la restriction à est homotope à l’identité: ce sont des exemples d’applications qui induisent l’identité en homologie et en homotopie. Plus généralement, soit un complexe de Poincaré 1-connexe de dimension , qui n’a pas le type d’homotopie rationnelle de : si est formel, nous montrons que le groupe des classes d’homotopies d’applications de dans , dont la restriction au -squelette est homotope à l’identité,...
