The Bracket in the Bar Spectral Sequence for an Iterated Loop Space

Algebraic Topology 2019-08-27 v1

Abstract

When XX is an associative H-space, the bar spectral sequence computes the homology of the delooping, H(BX)H_{*}(BX). If XX is an nn-fold loop space for n2n\geq2 this is a spectral sequence of Hopf algebras. Using machinery by Sugawara and Clark, we show that the spectral sequence filtration respects the Browder bracket structure on H(BX)H_{*}(BX), and so it is moreover a spectral sequence of Poisson algebras. Through the bracket on the spectral sequence, we establish a connection between the degree n1n-1 bracket on H(X)H_{*}(X) and the degree n2n-2 bracket on H(BX)H_{*}(BX). This generalizes a result of Browder and puts it in a computational context.
