The bitwisted Cartesian model for the free loop fibration

Algebraic Topology 2009-05-15 v8

Abstract

Using the notion of truncating twisting function from a simplicial set to a cubical set a special, bitwisted, Cartesian product of these sets is defined. For the universal truncating twisting function, the (co)chain complex of the corresponding bitwisted Cartesian product agrees with the standard Cartier (Hochschild) chain complex of the simplicial (co)chains. The modelling polytopes FnF_n are constructed. An explicit diagonal on FnF_n is defined and a multiplicative model for the free loop fibration ΩYΛYY\Omega Y\to \Lambda Y\to Y is obtained. As an application we establish an algebra isomorphism H(ΛY;Z)S(U)Λ(s1U)H^*(\Lambda Y;\mathbb{Z}) \approx S(U)\otimes \Lambda(s^{_{-1}}U) for the polynomial cohomology algebra H(Y;Z)=S(U).H^*(Y;\mathbb{Z})=S(U).
