Generalized symmetric spaces and minimal models

Anna Dumańska-Małyszko, Zofia Stępień, Aleksy Tralle (1996)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

We prove that any compact simply connected manifold carrying a structure of Riemannian 3- or 4-symmetric space is formal in the sense of Sullivan. This result generalizes Sullivan's classical theorem on the formality of symmetric spaces, but the proof is of a different nature, since for generalized symmetric spaces techniques based on the Hodge theory do not work. We use the Thomas theory of minimal models of fibrations and the classification of 3- and 4-symmetric spaces.

Genus sets and SNT sets of certain connective covering spaces

Huale Huang, Joseph Roitberg (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We study the genus and SNT sets of connective covering spaces of familiar finite CW-complexes, both of rationally elliptic type (e.g. quaternionic projective spaces) and of rationally hyperbolic type (e.g. one-point union of a pair of spheres). In connection with the latter situation, we are led to an independently interesting question in group theory: if f is a homomorphism from Gl(ν,A) to Gl(n,A), ν < n, A = ℤ, resp. p , does the image of f have infinite, resp. uncountably infinite, index in...

Homomorphic images and rationalizations based on the Eilenberg-MacLane spaces

Dae-Woong Lee (2005)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Are there any kinds of self maps on the loop structure whose induced homomorphic images are the Lie brackets in tensor algebra? We will give an answer to this question by defining a self map of Ω Σ K ( , 2 d ) , and then by computing efficiently some self maps. We also study the topological rationalization properties of the suspension of the Eilenberg-MacLane spaces. These results will be playing a powerful role in the computation of the same n -type problems and giving us an information about the rational homotopy...

Injective models of G -disconnected simplicial sets

Marek Golasiński (1997)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

We generalize the results by G.V. Triantafillou and B. Fine on G -disconnected simplicial sets. An existence of an injective minimal model for a complete 𝕀 -algebra is presented, for any E I -category 𝕀 . We then make use of the E I -category 𝒪 ( G , X ) associated with a G -simplicial set X to apply these results to the category of G -simplicial sets.Finally, we describe the rational homotopy type of a nilpotent G -simplicial set by means of its injective minimal model.
