Homotopy theory | Equivalence (mathematics)

Simple homotopy theory

In mathematics, simple homotopy theory is a homotopy theory (a branch of algebraic topology) that concerns with the simple-homotopy type of a space. It was originated by Whitehead in his 1950 paper "Simple homotopy type". (Wikipedia).

Introduction to Homotopy Theory- PART 1: UNIVERSAL CONSTRUCTIONS

The goal of this series is to develop homotopy theory from a categorical perspective, alongside the theory of model categories. We do this with the hope of eventually developing stable homotopy theory, a personal goal a passion of mine. I'm going to follow nLab's notes, but I hope to add t

Lie Groups and Lie Algebras: Lesson 34 -Introduction to Homotopy

Lie Groups and Lie Algebras: Introduction to Homotopy In order to proceed with Gilmore's study of Lie groups and Lie algebras we now need a concept from algebraic topology. That concept is the notion of homotopy and the Fundamental Group of a topological space. In this lecture we provide

Homomorphisms in abstract algebra

In this video we add some more definition to our toolbox before we go any further in our study into group theory and abstract algebra. The definition at hand is the homomorphism. A homomorphism is a function that maps the elements for one group to another whilst maintaining their structu

Abstract: In his address at the 1958 International Congress of Mathematicians Milnor described his joint work with Kervaire, relating Bernoulli numbers, homotopy groups, and the theory of manifolds. These ideas soon led them to one of the most remarkable formulas in mathematics, relating f
