There Are No Essential Phantom Mappings from 1-dimensional CW-complexes

Sibe Mardešić (2013)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

A phantom mapping h from a space Z to a space Y is a mapping whose restrictions to compact subsets are homotopic to constant mappings. If the mapping h is not homotopic to a constant mapping, one speaks of an essential phantom mapping. The definition of (essential) phantom pairs of mappings is analogous. In the study of phantom mappings (phantom pairs of mappings), of primary interest is the case when Z and Y are CW-complexes. In a previous paper it was shown that there are no essential phantom...

Variations on a theme of homotopy

Timothy Porter (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

The aim of this article is to bring together various themes from fairly elementary homotopy theory and to examine them, in part, from a historical and philosophical viewpoint.
