This book was released on 1980 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The homology of iterated loop spaces [capital Greek]Omega [superscript]n [italic]X has always been a problem of major interest because it gives some insight into the homotopy of [italic]X, among other things. Therefore, if [italic]X is a CW-complex, one has been interested in small CW models for [capital Greek]Omega [superscript]n [italic]X in order to compute the cellular chain complex. The author proves a very general model theorem from which he can derive models, in addition to very technical proofs of the model theorem for several other models.

This book was released on 2014-08-31 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a new topological invariant called the m-structure, which incorporates all information contained in the canonical coproduct and the Steenrod operations. Given a chain complex equipped with an m-structure, Smith shows that its cobar construction also has a natural m-structure. This derived m-structure of the cobar construction corresponds to the m-structure of the loop space of the original space under the map that carries the cobar construction to the loop space. This result allows one to form iterated cobar constructions which Smith shows are homotopy equivalent to iterated loop spaces. These results are applied to the computation of the cohomology algebra structure of total spaces of fibrations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper develops a new invariant of a CW-complex called the m-structure and uses it to perform homotopy-theoretic computations. The m-structure of a space encapsulates the coproduct structure, as well as higher-coproduct structures that determine Steenrod-operations. Given an m-structure on the chain complex of a reduced simplicial complex of a pointed simply-connected space, one can equip the cobar construction of this chain-complex with a natural m-structure. This result allows one to form iterated cobar constructions that are shown to be homotopy equivalent to iterated loop-spaces.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory and practice of computation in algebraic geometry and related domains, from a mathematical point of view, has generated an increasing interest both for its rich theoretical possibilities and its usefulness in applications in science and engineering. In fact, it is one of the master keys for future significant improvement of the computer algebra systems (e.g., Reduce, Macsyma, Maple, Mathematica, Axiom, Macaulay, etc.) that have become such useful tools for many scientists in a variety of disciplines. The major themes covered in this volume, arising from papers p- sented at the conference MEGA-92 were: - Effective methods and complexity issues in commutative algebra, projective geometry, real geometry, and algebraic number theory - Algebra-geometric methods in algebraic computing and applica tions. MEGA-92 was the second of a new series of European conferences on the general theme of Effective Methods in Algebraic Geometry. It was held in Nice, France, on April 21-25, 1992 and built on the themes presented at MEGA-90 (Livomo, Italy, April 17-21, 1990). The next conference - MEGA-94 - will be held in Santander, Spain in the spring of 1994. The Organizing committee that initiatiod and supervises this bi enniel conference consists of A. Conte (Torino), J.H. Davenport (Bath), A. Galligo (Nice), D. Yu. Grigoriev (Petersburg), J. Heintz (Buenos Aires), W. Lassner (Leipzig), D. Lazard (paris), H.M. MOller (Hagen), T. Mora (Genova), M.

Download or read book Rational Homotopical Models and Uniqueness written by Martin Majewski and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2000 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main goal of this paper is to prove the following conjecture of Baues and Lemaire: the differential graded Lie Tlgebra associated with the Sullivan model of a space is homotopy equivalent to its Quillen model. In addition we show the same for the cellular Lie algebra model which we build from the simplicial analog of the classical Adams-Hilton model. It turns out that this cellular Lie algebra model is one link in a chain of models connecting the models of Quillen and Sullivan.The key result which makes all this possible is Anick's correspondence between differential graded Lie algebras and Hopf algebras up to homotopy. In addition we show that the Quillen model is a rational homotopical equivalence, and we conclude the same for the other models using our main result. Theconstruction of the three models is given in detail. The background from homotopy theory, differential algebra, and algebra is presented in great generality.
Download or read book Algebraic Homotopy written by Hans J. Baues and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1989-02-16 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives a general outlook on homotopy theory; fundamental concepts, such as homotopy groups and spectral sequences, are developed from a few axioms and are thus available in a broad variety of contexts. Many examples and applications in topology and algebra are discussed, including an introduction to rational homotopy theory in terms of both differential Lie algebras and De Rham algebras. The author describes powerful tools for homotopy classification problems, particularly for the classification of homotopy types and for the computation of the group homotopy equivalences. Applications and examples of such computations are given, including when the fundamental group is non-trivial. Moreover, the deep connection between the homotopy classification problems and the cohomology theory of small categories is demonstrated. The prerequisites of the book are few: elementary topology and algebra. Consequently, this account will be valuable for non-specialists and experts alike. It is an important supplement to the standard presentations of algebraic topology, homotopy theory, category theory and homological algebra.

Download or read book Associahedra Tamari Lattices and Related Structures written by Folkert Müller-Hoissen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-07-13 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tamari lattices originated from weakenings or reinterpretations of the familar associativity law. This has been the subject of Dov Tamari's thesis at the Sorbonne in Paris in 1951 and the central theme of his subsequent mathematical work. Tamari lattices can be realized in terms of polytopes called associahedra, which in fact also appeared first in Tamari's thesis. By now these beautiful structures have made their appearance in many different areas of pure and applied mathematics, such as algebra, combinatorics, computer science, category theory, geometry, topology, and also in physics. Their interdisciplinary nature provides much fascination and value. On the occasion of Dov Tamari's centennial birthday, this book provides an introduction to topical research related to Tamari's work and ideas. Most of the articles collected in it are written in a way accessible to a wide audience of students and researchers in mathematics and mathematical physics and are accompanied by high quality illustrations.
