Loop space decompositions of highly symmetric spaces with applications to polyhedral products

Algebraic Topology 2023-11-01 v2

Abstract

We generalise the fold map for the wedge sum and use this to give a loop space decomposition of topological spaces with a high degree of symmetry. This is applied to polyhedral products to give a loop space decomposition of polyhedral products associated to families of graphs.
