Application of good coverings to collapsing Alexandrov spaces

Abstract

Let MM be an Alexandrov space collapsing to an Alexandrov space XX of lower dimension. Suppose XX has no proper extremal subsets and let FF denote a regular fiber. We slightly improve the result of Perelman to construct an infinitely long exact sequence of homotopy groups and a spectral sequence of cohomology groups for the pair (M,X,F)(M,X,F). The proof is an application of the good coverings of Alexandrov spaces introduced by Mitsuishi-Yamaguchi. We also extend this result to each primitive extremal subset of XX.
