Jul 6, 2015 at 8:26 | comment | added | user51223 | Sorry, I made a mistake. I meant Phantom maps. Look at `SPACES OF THE SAME n-TYPE, FOR ALL n' by Brayton Gray,TOPOLOGY Vol.5,pp.241. I think it has sort of examples you are after. | |

Jul 5, 2015 at 21:42 | comment | added | user51223 | I think for $n=+\infty$ what you look for is related to Jet maps which are discussed in Gray's book. Restricted to finite dimensional complexes, they give isomorphism, but not a homotopy equiv. in general. I also suggest to compare the above version of Whitehead's theorem to the version related to $n$-types. Look at Mosher and Tangora, Theorem 3 on page 131. They are not the same notions, but very much related. | |
