Homotopy type through homology groups

Algebraic Topology 2025-03-14 v2

Abstract

We show that if a complex has free finitely generated reduced homology groups for two consecutive dimensions and trivial homology for all other dimensions, then it must have the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres of two consecutive dimensions. We also show other pairs of dimensions for which the last result can be generalized.
