Co-<i>H</i>-Structures on Moore Spaces of Type (<i>G</i>, 2)
Abstrak
AbstractWe consider the set (of homotopy classes) of co-H-structures on a Moore space M(G,n), where G is an abelian group and n is an integer ≥ 2. It is shown that for n > 2 the set has one element and for n = 2 the set is in one-one correspondence with Ext(G, G ⊗ G). We make a detailed investigation of the co-H-structures on M(G, 2) in the case G = ℤm, the integers mod m. We give a specific indexing of the co-H-structures on M(ℤm, 2) and of the homotopy classes of maps from M(ℤm, 2) to M(ℤn, 2) by means of certain standard homotopy elements. In terms of this indexing we completely determine the co-H-maps from M{ℤm, 2) to M(ℤn, 2) for each co-H-structure on M(ℤm, 2) and on M(ℤn, 2). This enables us to describe the action of the group of homotopy equivalences of M(ℤn, 2) on the set of co-H-structures of M(ℤm, 2). We prove that the action is transitive. From this it follows that if m is odd, all co-H-structures on M(ℤm, 2) are associative and commutative, and if m is even, all co-H-structures on M(ℤm, 2) are associative and non-commutative.
