Sharp Homology Decompositions for Classifying Spaces of Finite Groups

چکیده
where D is some small category, F is a functor from D to the category of spaces, and, for each object d ∈ D, F (d) has the homotopy type of BH for some subgroup H of G. The operator “hocolim” is the homotopy colimit in the sense of Bousfield and Kan [4], which amounts to a homotopy invariant method of gluing together the values of the functor F according to the pattern of the maps in D. There is a systematic study of some of the more common homology decompositions in [6] (see 1.3 below). Here we go further along the same lines. Bousfield and Kan associate to 1.1 a first quadrant homology spectral sequence [4, XII.5.7]

Classifying Spaces and Homology Decompositions
Suppose that G is a finite group. We look at the problem of expressing the classifying space BG, up to mod p cohomology, as a homotopy colimit of classifying spaces of smaller groups. A number of interesting tools come into play, such as simplicial sets and spaces, nerves of categories, equivariant homotopy theory, and the transfer.
متن کاملNew collections of p-subgroups and homology decompositions for classifying spaces of finite groups
We define new collections of p-subgroups for a finite group G and p a prime dividing its order. We study the homotopy relations among them and with the standard collections of p-subgroups and determine their ampleness and sharpness properties.
متن کاملCommuting Elements, Simplicial Spaces and Filtrations of Classifying Spaces
Let Γ denote the q-th stage of the descending central series of the free group on n generators Fn. For each q ≥ 2 and every topological group G, a simplicial space B∗(q, G) is constructed where Bn(q, G) = Hom(Fn/Γ , G) and the realizations B(q, G) = |B∗(q, G)| filter the classifying space BG. In particular for q = 2 this yields a single space B(2, G) assembled from all the n–tuples of commuting...
متن کاملHOMOLOGY DECOMPOSITIONS FOR p-COMPACT GROUPS
We construct a homotopy theoretic setup for homology decompositions of classifying spaces of p-compact groups. This setup is then used to obtain a subgroup decomposition for p-compact groups which generalizes the subgroup decomposition with respect to p-stubborn subgroups for a compact Lie group constructed by Jackowski, McClure and Oliver. Homology decompositions are among the most useful tool...
متن کاملTopological K-(co-)homology of Classifying Spaces of Discrete Groups
Let G be a discrete group. We give methods to compute for a generalized (co-)homology theory its values on the Borel construction EG×G X of a proper G-CW -complex X satisfying certain finiteness conditions. In particular we give formulas computing the topological K-(co)homology K∗(BG) and K(BG) up to finite abelian torsion groups. They apply for instance to arithmetic groups, word hyperbolic gr...
