Some rational computations of the Waldhausen algebraic K theory.
Seguendo le idee presentate nei lavori [1] e [2] si studiano le proprietà dei gruppi di -omotopia per moduli ed omomorfismi di moduli.
Square groups are gadgets classifying quadratic endofunctors of the category of groups. Applying such a functor to the Kan simplicial loop group of the 2-dimensional sphere, one obtains a one-connected three-type. We consider the problem of characterization of those three-types X which can be obtained in this way. We solve this problem in some cases, including the case when π2(X) is a finitely generated abelian group. The corresponding stable problem is solved completely.
We describe an alternative approach to some results of Vassiliev ([Va1]) on spaces of polynomials, by applying the "scanning method" used by Segal ([Se2]) in his investigation of spaces of rational functions. We explain how these two approaches are related by the Smale-Hirsch Principle or the h-Principle of Gromov. We obtain several generalizations, which may be of interest in their own right.
We show that one can reduce the study of global (in particular cohomological) properties of a compact Hausdorff space X to the study of its stable cohomotopy groups . Any cohomology functor on the homotopy category of compact spaces factorizes via the stable shape category ShStab. This is the main reason why the language and technique of stable shape theory can be used to describe and analyze the global structure of compact spaces. For a given Hausdorff compact space X, there exists a metric compact...
We present a very short way of calculating additively the stable (co)homology of Eilenberg-MacLane spaces K(ℤ/p,n). Our method depends only on homological algebra in appropriate categories of functors.
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,...
