On the homotopy groups of p-completed classifying spaces

Algebraic Topology 2007-05-23 v1 Group Theory

Abstract

Among the generalizations of Serre's theorem on the homotopy groups of a finite complex we isolate the one proposed by Dwyer and Wilkerson. Even though the spaces they consider must be 2-connected, we show that it can be used to both recover known results and obtain new theorems about p-completed classifying spaces.
