Review text

\textit{E. Dror Farjoun} [Cellular spaces, null spaces and homotopy localization (Lecture Notes in Mathematics 1622, Springer Verlag, Berlin) (1996; Zbl 0842.55001)] studies classes of unpointed spaces, which he calls closed provided (roughly) they are non-empty, closed under weak equivalences and suitable homotopy colimits. There are similar pointed ideas. If \(A\) is nonempty, \({\mathcal C}(A)\) is the smallest closed class which contains \(A\). One writes \(X\gg A\) and calls \(X\) an \(A\)-cellular space. It can be identified as an image under a composite functor. Similarly, \(\overline{\mathcal C}(A)\) is the smallest closed class that contains \(A\) and is also closed under extensions by fibrations. One writes \(X\in\overline{\mathcal C}(A)\) and \(X> A\), and says \(X\) is \(A\)-acyclic. \(\overline{\mathcal C}(A)\) can be identified with the kernel of the functor \(P_A\) [\textit{W. Chachólski}, Duke Math. J. 84, No. 3, 599--631 (1996; Zbl 0873.55014)]. The authors prove the impressive result that spaces are a complete lattice under \(\gg\), and for any \(A\), there is a \(B\) so that \(\overline{\mathcal C}(A)= {\mathcal C}(B)\). If \(A\) is finite, \(B\) may be explicitly identified. As is now traditional, the paper is written in the simplicial category.
