Relative phantom maps

The de Bruijn-Erdős theorem states that the chromatic number of an infinite graph equals the maximum of the chromatic numbers of finite subgraphs. Such a determinativeness by finite subobjects appears in the definition of a phantom map which is classical in algebraic topology. The topological method in combinatorics connects these two, which leads us to define the relative version of a phantom map: a map $f\colon X\to Y$ is called a relative phantom map to a map $φ\colon B\to Y$ if the restriction of $f$ to any finite subcomplex of $X$ lifts to $B$ through $φ$, up to homotopy. There are two kinds of maps which are obviously relative phantom maps: (1) the composite of a map $X\to B$ with $φ$; (2) a usual phantom map $X\to Y$. A relative phantom map of type (1) is called trivial, and a relative phantom map out of a suspension which is a sum of (1) and (2) is called relatively trivial. We study the (relative) triviality of relative phantom maps and in particular, we give rational homology conditions for the (relative) triviality.

Generating functions and topological complexity

We examine the rationality conjecture which states that (a) the formal power series $\sum_{r\ge 1} \tc_{r+1}(X)\cdot x^r$ represents a rational function of $x$ with a single pole of order 2 at $x=1$ and (b) the leading coefficient of the pole equals $\cat(X)$. Here $X$ is a finite CW-complex and for $r\ge 2$ the symbol $\tc_r(X)$ denotes its $r$-th sequential topological complexity. We analyse an example (violating the Ganea conjecture) and conclude that part (b) of the rationality conjecture is false in general. Besides, we establish a cohomological version of the rationality conjecture.

Characterisation of polyhedral products with finite generalised Postnikov decomposition

A generalised Postnikov tower for a space $X$ is a tower of principal fibrations with fibres generalised Eilenberg-MacLane spaces, whose inverse limit is weakly homotopy equivalent to $X$. In this paper we give a characterisation of a polyhedral product $Z_K(X,A)$ whose universal cover either admits a generalised Postnikov tower of finite length, or is a homotopy retract of a space admitting such a tower. We also include $p$-local and rational versions of the theorem. We end with a group theoretic application.

Higher homotopy associativity in the Harris decomposition of Lie groups

Let $(G,H)=(SU(2n+1),SO(2n+1)),\,(SU(2n),Sp(n)),\,(SO(2n),SO(2n-1)),\,(E_6,F_4),\,(Spin(8),G_2)$, and let $p$ be any prime $\ge 5$ for $(G,H)=(E_6,F_4)$, any prime $p\ne 3$ for $(G,H)=(Spin(8),G_2)$, and any odd prime otherwise. The classical result of Harris on the relation between the homotopy groups of $G$ and $H$ is reinterpreted as a $p$-local homotopy equivalence $G\simeq_{(p)}H\times G/H$, which yields a projection $G_{(p)}\to H_{(p)}$. We show how much this projection preserves the higher homotopy associativity.

Polyhedral products for shifted complexes and higher Whitehead products

This paper studies the map between polyhedral products $\mathcal{Z}_K(C\underline{X},\underline{X})\to\mathcal{Z}_K(Σ\underline{X},*)$ induced from the pinch maps $(CX_i,X_i)\to(ΣX_i,*)$, which is the higher order Whitehead product if $K$ is the boundary of a simplex. When $K$ is a shifted complex, a wedge decomposition of $\mathcal{Z}_K(C\underline{X},\underline{X})$ is given by the authors. Based on this decomposition, when $K$ is shifted, the induced pinch map is explicitly described as a wedge of iterated Whitehead products each of which includes at most one higher product. As a corollary, the Jacobi identity of Whitehead products including higher products due to Hardie is generalized.

Whitehead products in moment-angle complexes

In toric topology, to a simplicial complex $K$ with $m$ vertices, one associates two spaces, the moment-angle complex $\mathcal{Z}_K$ and the Davis-Januszkiewicz space $DJ_K$. These spaces are connected by a homotopy fibration $\mathcal{Z}_K\to DJ_K\to(\mathbb{C}P^\infty)^m$. In this paper, we show that the map $\mathcal{Z}_K\to DJ_K$ is identified with a wedge of iterated (higher) Whitehead products for a certain class of simplicial complexes $K$ including dual shellable complexes. We will prove the result in a more general setting of polyhedral products.

Higher homotopy commutativity in localized Lie groups and gauge groups

The first aim of this paper is to study the $p$-local higher homotopy commutativity of Lie groups in the sense of Sugawara. The second aim is to apply this result to the $p$-local higher homotopy commutativity of gauge groups. Although the higher homotopy commutativity of Lie groups in the sense of Williams is already known, the higher homotopy commutativity in the sense of Sugawara is necessary for this application. The third aim is to resolve the $5$-local higher homotopy non-commutativity problem of the exceptional Lie group $\mathrm{G}_2$, which has been open for a long time.

On the homotopy types of $\mathrm{Sp}(n)$ gauge groups

Let $\mathcal{G}_{k,n}$ be the gauge group of the principal $\mathrm{Sp}(n)$-bundle over $S^4$ corresponding to $k\in\mathbb{Z}\congπ_3(\mathrm{Sp}(n))$. We refine the result of Sutherland on the homotopy types of $\mathcal{G}_{k,n}$ and relate it with the order of a certain Samelson product in $\mathrm{Sp}(n)$. Then we classify the $p$-local homotopy types of $\mathcal{G}_{k,n}$ for $(p-1)^2+1\ge 2n$.

Right-angled Coxeter quandles and polyhedral products

To a Coxeter group $W$ one associates a quandle $X_W$ from which one constructs a group $\mathrm{Ad}(X_W)$. This group turns out to be an intermediate object between $W$ and the associated Artin group. By using a result of Akita, we prove that $\mathrm{Ad}(X_W)$ is given by a pullback involving $W$, and by using this pullback, we show that the classifying space of $\mathrm{Ad}(X_W)$ is given by a space called a polyhedral product whenever $W$ is right-angled. Two applications of this description of the classifying space are given.

Samelson products in quasi-$p$-regular exceptional Lie groups

There is a product decomposition of a compact connected Lie group $G$ at the prime $p$, called the mod $p$ decomposition, when $G$ has no $p$-torsion in homology. Then in studying the multiplicative structure of the $p$-localization of $G$, the Samelson products of the factor space inclusions of the mod $p$ decomposition are fundamental. This paper determines (non-)triviality of these fundamental Samelson products in the $p$-localized exceptional Lie groups when the factor spaces are of rank $\le 2$, that is, $G$ is quasi-$p$-regular.

Polyhedral products for simplicial complexes with minimal Taylor resolutions

We prove that for a simplicial complex $K$ whose Taylor resolution for the Stanley-Reisner ring is minimal, the following four conditions are equivalent: (1) $K$ satisfies the strong gcd-condition; (2) $K$ is Golod; (3) the moment-angle complex $\mathcal{Z}_K$ is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres; (4) the decomposition of the suspension of the polyhedral product $\mathcal{Z}_K(C\underline{X},\underline{X})$ due to Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen, and Gitler desuspends.

Golodness and polyhedral products for two dimensional simplicial complexes

Golodness of 2-dimensional simplicial complexes is studied through polyhedral products, and combinatorial and topoogical characterization of Golodness of surface triangulations is given. An answer to the question of Berglund is also given so that there is a 2-dimensional simplicial complex which is rationally Golod but is not Golod over $\mathbb{Z}/p$.

Fat wedge filtrations and decomposition of polyhedral products

The polyhedral product constructed from a collection of pairs of cones and their bases and a simplicial complex $K$ is studied by investigating its filtration called the fat wedge filtration. We give a sufficient condition for decomposing the polyhedral product in terms of the fat wedge filtration of the real moment-angle complex for $K$, which is a desuspension of the decomposition of the suspension of the polyhedral product due to Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen, and Gitler. We show that the condition also implies a strong connection with the Golodness of $K$, and is satisfied when $K$ is dual sequentially Cohen-Macaulay over $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\lceil\frac{\dim K}{2}\rceil$-neighborly so that the polyhedral product decomposes. Specializing to moment-angle complexes, we also give a necessary and sufficient condition for their decomposition and co-H-structures in terms of their fat wedge filtration.

Topology of polyhedral products and the Golod property of Stanley-Reisner rings

The polyhedral product is a space constructed from a simplicial complex and a collection of pairs of spaces, which is connected with the Stanley Reisner ring of the simplicial complex via cohomology. Generalizing the previous work Grbic and Theriault, Grujic and Welker, and the authors, we show a decomposition of polyhedral products for a large class of simplicial complexes including the ones whose Alexander duals are shellable or sequentially Cohen-Macaulay. This implies the property, called Golod, of the corresponding Stanley-Reisner rings proved by Herzog, Reiner and Welker.

Decompositions of suspensions of spaces involving polyhedral products

Two homotopy decompositions of supensions of spaces involving polyhedral products are given. The first decomposition is motivated by the decomposition of suspensions of polyhedral products by Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen, and Gitler, and is a generalization of the retractile argument of James. The second decomposition is on the union of an arrangement of subspaces called diagonal subspaces, and generalizes the result of Labbasi.

Samelson products in p-regular SO(2n) and its homotopy normality

A Lie group is called $p$-regular if it has the $p$-local homotopy type of a product of spheres. (Non)triviality of the Samelson products of the inclusions of the factor spheres into $p$-regular $\mathrm{SO}(2n)_{(p)}$ is determined, which completes the list of (non)triviality of such Samelson products in $p$-regular simple Lie groups. As an application, we determine the homotopy normality of the inclusion $\mathrm{SO}(2n-1)\to\mathrm{SO}(2n)$ in the sense of James at any prime $p$.
