On Generalized Whitehead Products
We define a symmetric monodical pairing G ◦ H among simply connected co-H spaces G and H with the property that S(G◦H) is equivalent to the smash product G∧H as co-H spaces. We further generalize the Whitehead product map to a map G ◦ H → G ∨ H whose mapping cone is the cartesian product. Whitehead products have played an important role in unstable homotopy. They were originally introduced [Whi...
متن کاملWhitehead, James, and the Ontology of Quantum Theory
I shall describe the beautiful fit of the ideas of Alfred North Whitehead and William James with the concepts of relativistic quantum field theory developed by Tomonaga and Schwinger. The central concept is a set of happenings each of which is assigned a space-time region. This growing set of non-overlapping regions fill out a growing space-time region that advances into the stilluncreated and ...
متن کاملJames mark Baldwin with alfred north whitehead on organic selectivity: the “novel” factor in evolution
the aim of this paper is to show how James mark Baldwin’s theory of organic selection (also known as the “Baldwin effect”) can be fruitfully integrated with alfred north whitehead’s speculative philosophy, as part of the endeavor to develop a comprehensive process-relational evolutionary cosmology. in so doing, it provides an overview of the theory of organic selection and points to several con...
متن کاملDeformations of Whitehead Products, Symplectomorphism Groups, and Gromov–Witten Invariants
homotopy groups π∗(Xλ)⊗Q for a family of topological spaces, once we know enough about their additive structure. This allows us to interpret the condition of realizing as an Ak map a multiple of a map f : S1 −→ G between two topological groups in terms of the existence of a rational Whitehead product of order k. Our main example will be when the Xλ are classifying spaces of symplectomorphism gr...
متن کاملOn a Theorem of Montgomery and Samelson
In their paper on fibrations with singularities Montgomery and Samelson showed that if a compact connected Lie group acts differentiably and effectively on a sphere and if there is one stationary point, then the remaining orbits cannot all be of the same dimension [2]. In our note we will examine transformation groups in which all orbits have the same dimension. As a corollary, we shall extend ...
