Homotopy theory is an important sub-field of algebraic topology. It is mainly concerned with the properties and structures of spaces which are invariant under homotopy. Chief among these are the homotopy groups of spaces, specifically those of spheres. Homotopy theory includes a broad set of ideas and techniques, such as cohomology theories, spectra and stable homotopy theory, model categories, spectral sequences, and classifying spaces.

Bousfield $p$-completion on spectra

Bousfield p-completion on spaces is a functor $(-)^{\wedge p}$ whose main property is that a map $f:X\rightarrow Y$ induces an isomorphism $f_{\ast}:H_\ast(X,\mathbb{F}_{p})\rightarrow H_\ast(Y,\mathb …

$(B\mathbb Z/p^{\infty})^{\wedge}_p\rightarrow (BS^1)^{\wedge}_p$ induced by inclusion is an...

Let $\mathbb{Z}/p^{\infty}$ denote the Prufer group. By $p$-completion properties, it follows that $(B\mathbb Z/p^{\infty})^{\wedge}_p\simeq K(\mathbb{Z}^{\wedge}_p,2)\simeq(BS^1)^{\wedge}_p$. But, wh …

$\mathrm{\Gamma}$ functor of Barratt-Eccles in simplicial context

In the article A free group functor for stable homotopy theory, Barratt and Eccles define for each $X\in\mathsf{sSet}_{\ast}$, the free simplicial monoid $\Gamma^{+}X$. Proposition 6.2 states i …

Is $[X, \_]$ a homology theory?

Let $X$ be a CW-spectrum. It is well-known that $[\_ ,X]$ is a generalized cohomology theory and, by Brown's representability theorem, every generalized theory is $H$ represented by a spectrum (namely …

Multiplicity of indecomposable stable summands of $BG^{\wedge}_p$

I am reading the article Homotopy stable classification of $BG^{\wedge}_p$ by Martino-Priddy. Let $P_u$, $P_v$ be $p$-subgroups of a finite group $G$, such that $P_u\leq x^{-1}P_v x$ for some $x\in G$ …

When $\Sigma^{\infty}Y^{\wedge}_p\simeq (\Sigma^{\infty} Y)^{\wedge}_p$?

When studying the stable homotopy of $BG^{\wedge}_p$, with $G$ a finite group, authors know that this abuse of notation is not dangerous because $\Sigma^{\infty}BG^{\wedge}_p$ and $(\Sigma^{\infty}BG) …
