چکیده
We will give a combinatorial description of the homotopy groups for the suspension ofK(π, 1) and wedges of 2-spheres. In particular, all of the homotopy groups of the 2-sphere are given as the centers of certain combinatorially described groups.

Combinatorial group theory and the homotopy groups of finite complexes
A description of homotopy groups of the 2-dimensional sphere in terms of combinatorial group theory was discovered by the second author in 1994 and given in his thesis [25], with a published version in [27]. In this article we give a combinatorial description of the homotopy groups of k-dimensional spheres with k ≥ 3. The description is given by identifying the homotopy groups as the center of ...

متن کاملA-homotopy groups, excision, and solvable quotients
We study some properties of A-homotopy groups: geometric interpretations of connectivity, excision results, and a re-interpretation of geometric quotients by solvable groups in terms of covering spaces in the sense of A-homotopy theory. These concepts and results are well-suited to the study of certain quotients via geometric invariant theory. As a case study in geometry of solvable group quoti...
متن کاملCombinatorial Description of the Homotopy Groups of Wedge of Spheres
In this paper, we give a combinatorial description of the homotopy groups of a wedge of spheres. This result generalizes that of J. Wu on the homotopy groups of a wedge of 2-spheres. In particular, the higher homotopy groups of spheres are given as the centers of certain combinatorially described groups with special generators and relations.
