Abstract: The (co)homology self-closeness number of a simply-connected based CW-complexes X is the minimal number k such that any self-map f of X inducing an automorphism of the (co)homology groups for dimensionsleqk is a self-homotopy equivalence. These two numbers are homotopy invariants and have a close relation with the group of self-homotopy equivalences. In this paper, we compare the (co)homology self-closeness numbers of spaces in certain cofibrations, define the mod p (co)homology self-closeness number of simply-connected p-local spaces with finitely generated homologies and study some properties of the (mod p) (co)homology self-closeness numbers.


For connected spaces \(X\) and \(Y\), let \([X,Y]\) denote the set of all based homotopy classes of based maps \(f:X\to Y\) and let \(\mathcal{E}(X)\subset [X,X]\) be the group of all based homotopy classes of based self-homotopy equivalences on \(X\). Let \(\mathcal{A}^k_{\#}(X)=\{f\in [X,X]\mid f_*:\pi_i(X)\stackrel{\cong}{\longrightarrow}\pi_i(X) \text{ is an isomorphism for any }i\leq k\}\) and let \(N_{\#}\mathcal{E}(X)\) denote the self-closeness number defined by \[ N_{\#}\mathcal{E}(X)=\min \{k\mid \mathcal{A}^k_{\#}(X)=\mathcal{E}(X)\}. \] In this paper the author considers the analogous numbers related to the self-closeness number \(N_{\#}\mathcal{E}(X)\) when \(X\) is a simply connected based CW complex. More precisely he considers the (co)homology self-closeness numbers (resp. mod \(p\) (co)homology self-closeness numbers) of the spaces in certain cofibrations and compares these numbers. In particular, he obtains some properties of the (mod \(p\)) (co)homology self-closeness numbers.
