A combinatorial model for the free loop fibration

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We introduce the abstract notion of a closed necklical set in order to describe a functorial combinatorial model of the free loop fibration OmegaYightarrowLambdaYightarrowY over the geometric realization Y=|X| of a path connected simplicial set X. In particular, to any path connected simplicial set X we associate a closed necklical set widehatmathbfLambdaX such that its geometric realization |widehatmathbfLambdaX|, a space built out of gluing "freehedrical" and "cubical" cells, is homotopy equivalent to the free loop space LambdaY and the differential graded module of chains C∗(widehatmathbfLambdaX) generalizes the coHochschild chain complex of the chain coalgebra Cast(X).
