Abstract
For we consider -connected closed manifolds of dimension at most . We prove that away from a finite set of primes, the -local homotopy groups of are determined by the dimension of the space of indecomposable elements in the cohomology ring . Moreover, we show that these -local homotopy groups can be expressed as direct sum of -local homotopy groups of spheres. This generalizes some of the results of our earlier work.
