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.

Do topological spaces form a full subcategory of spectra?

Let $\Sigma^\infty: Top_* \to Spectra$ be a functor sending a pointed topological space $X$ to its suspension spectrum, that is $(\Sigma^\infty X)_n=\Sigma^nX$ with isomorphisms $\Sigma(\Sigma^\infty …

Is there an analogue of CW-complexes built from $K(\mathbb Z, n)$ instead of $S^n$?

The question is motivated by Eckmann-Hilton duality and certain flaws of the homotopy category of CW-complexes. Unfortunately, I do not know the formalism of model categories, so excuse me if it is a …
