The simplicial suspension sequence in \(\mathbb A^1\)-homotopy (Q2356961)

The article under review consists of a detailed study of certain aspects of unstable \(\mathbb{A}^1\)-homotopy theory. Among the contributions are: {\parindent=0.7cm\begin{itemize}\item[--] An axiomatisation of the unstable connectivity property. \item[--] A James-style model for simplicial loops on a simplicial suspension. \item[--] The introduction of Whitehead products and the EHP sequence as a computational tools in unstable motivic homotopy theory. \end{itemize}} Each of these contributions is of fundamental importance to the subject. The authors use all of these tools to compute certain unstable motivic homotopy sheaves of spheres. For example they show that if \(i \geq 0\) and the base is a field of characteristic zero containing an algebraically closed field, then \[ \pi^{\mathbb{A}^1}_{4+i+5\alpha}(S_s^{3+i} \wedge \mathbb{G}_m^{\wedge 3}) = \mathbb{Z}/24. \]
