A Torus Theorem for Homotopy Nilpotent Groups
Nilpotency for discrete groups can be defined in terms of central extensions. In this paper, the analogous definition for spaces is stated in terms of principal fibrations having infinite loop spaces as fibers, yielding a new invariant we compare with classical cocategory, but also with the more recent notion of homotopy nilpotency introduced by Biedermann and Dwyer. This allows us to character...
متن کاملTest Groups for Whitehead Groups
We consider the question of when the dual of a Whitehead group is a test group for Whitehead groups. This turns out to be equivalent to the question of when the tensor product of two Whitehead groups is Whitehead. We investigate what happens in different models of set theory.
متن کاملWhitehead Groups of Finite Groups
In 1966, Milnor surveyed in this Bulletin [23] the concept of Whitehead torsion, focusing on the definition, topological significance and computation of Whitehead groups and their relationship to algebraic ^-theory and the congruence subgroup problem. As Milnor showed in that survey [23, Appendix 1], an affirmative solution to the congruence subgroup problem for algebraic number fields would im...
متن کاملHOMOTOPY TYPE AND v1-PERIODIC HOMOTOPY GROUPS OF p-COMPACT GROUPS
We determine the v1-periodic homotopy groups of all irreducible p-compact groups. In the most difficult, modular, cases, we follow a direct path from their associated invariant polynomials to these homotopy groups. We show that, with several exceptions, every irreducible p-compact group is a product of explicit spherically-resolved spaces which occur also as factors of pcompleted Lie groups.
متن کاملBorel Whitehead Groups
We investigate the Whiteheadness of Borel abelian groups (א1-free, without loss of generality as otherwise this is trivial). We show that CH (and even WCH) implies any such abelian group is free, and always א2-free. 1998 Mathematics Subject Classification 03C60, 03E15, 20K20.
