Augmented Γ-spaces, the stable rank filtration, and a bu analogue of the Whitehead conjecture

Gregory Z. Arone, Kathryn Lesh (2010)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

We explore connections between our previous paper [J. Reine Angew. Math. 604 (2007)], where we constructed spectra that interpolate between bu and Hℤ, and earlier work of Kuhn and Priddy on the Whitehead conjecture and of Rognes on the stable rank filtration in algebraic K-theory. We construct a "chain complex of spectra" that is a bu analogue of an auxiliary complex used by Kuhn-Priddy; we conjecture that this chain complex is "exact"; and we give some supporting evidence. We tie this to work of...

Axiome du cube et foncteurs de Quillen

Jean-Pierre Doeraene, Daniel Tanré (1995)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Les approches de Whitehead et de Ganea, conceptuellement différentes, permettent toutes deux la définition de la catégorie de Lusternik et Schnirelmann. Le premier auteur a montré qu’elles existent dans le cadre des catégories à modèles de Quillen et qu’elles coïncident lorsqu’est vérifié un axiome supplémentaire non autodual, l’axiome du cube. Nous étendons ici cette étude au cadre de catégories à modèles non nécessairement propres et ne vérifiant pas l’axiome du cube. Pour cela, l’hypothèse globale...

Basic constructions in rational homotopy theory of function spaces

Urtzi Buijs, Aniceto Murillo (2006)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Via the Bousfield-Gugenheim realization functor, and starting from the Brown-Szczarba model of a function space, we give a functorial framework to describe basic objects and maps concerning the rational homotopy type of function spaces and its path components.

Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra structures on Hochschild cohomology

Luc Menichi (2009)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Let M be any compact simply-connected oriented d -dimensional smooth manifold and let 𝔽 be any field. We show that the Gerstenhaber algebra structure on the Hochschild cohomology on the singular cochains of M , H H * ( S * ( M ) , S * ( M ) ) , extends to a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. Such Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra was conjectured to exist and is expected to be isomorphic to the Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra on the free loop space homology on M , H * + d ( L M ) introduced by Chas and Sullivan. We also show that the negative cyclic cohomology H C - * ( S * ( M ) ) ...

Bimorphisms in pro-homotopy and proper homotopy

Jerzy Dydak, Francisco Ruiz del Portal (1999)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

A morphism of a category which is simultaneously an epimorphism and a monomorphism is called a bimorphism. The category is balanced if every bimorphism is an isomorphism. In the paper properties of bimorphisms of several categories are discussed (pro-homotopy, shape, proper homotopy) and the question of those categories being balanced is raised. Our most interesting result is that a bimorphism f:X → Y of t o w ( H 0 ) is an isomorphism if Y is movable. Recall that ( H 0 ) is the full subcategory of p r o - H 0 consisting of...

Borsuk's quasi-equivalence is not transitive

Andrzej Kadlof, Nikola Koceić Bilan, Nikica Uglešić (2007)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Borsuk's quasi-equivalence relation on the class of all compacta is considered. The open problem concerning transitivity of this relation is solved in the negative. Namely, three continua X, Y and Z lying in ℝ³ are constructed such that X is quasi-equivalent to Y and Y is quasi-equivalent to Z, while X is not quasi-equivalent to Z.
