A[símbolo de infinito]–coalgebra structures on the Zp-homology of Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces

Berciano Alcaraz, Ainhoa; Real Jurado, Pedro

Abstract

We study here the A(1)-coalgebra structure of the homology H (K( , n);Zp) of an Eilenberg-Mac Lane space K( , n), where is a finitely generated abelian group and n is a positive integer. Using diverse techniques of homological perturbation, we get that the components i(p−2)+2 of degree i(p − 2) (with i 0) are the only (possibly) non-null morphisms of said structure.

The explici mo phisms o cBQ a e he ollowing: BQ[ 1| 1|. . . | m| m] = {Qn k=1 δp, k+ k}γm(w), BQ[ 1| 1|. . . | m| m|l] = δ1,l{Qn k=1 δp, k+ k} ·γm(w), whe e he symbols δi,j a e de ined by: δi,j =0i6=j 1i=j The mo phism gBQ :H→¯ B(Q(p)(u, 2n)) is de ined o e he gene a o s as ollows: gBQ( ) = [1], gBQ(γk(w)) = [1|p−1|k imes . . . |1|p−1]. The homo opy ope a o φBQ is de ined by: φBQ1 = 0; φBQ[1] = 0; φBQ[x] = −[1|x−1] 1 < x < p; φBQ[x|y] = −[1|x−1|y]; φBQ[x|y|z] = −[1|x−1|y|z]−δp,x+y[1|p−1|φ(z)] whe e z∈¯ B(Q(p)(u, 2n)). The coassocia i e cop oduc on B(Q(p)(u, 2n)) is ∆([a1| · · · |a ]) = X i=0 [a1| · · · |ai]⊗[ai+1| · · · |a ].
