Exponential growth of Lie algebras of finite global dimension

Abstract: Let

X

be a finite simply connected CW complex of dimension

n

. The loop space homology

H_{*} (O m e g a X; m a t h b b Q)

is the universal enveloping algebra of a graded Lie algebra

L_{X}

isomorphic with

p i_{* - 1} (X) o t i m e s m a t h b b Q

. Let

Q_{X} s u b s e t L_{X}

be a minimal generating subspace, and set

a l p h a = l i m s u p_{i} f r a c l o g s c r i p t s i z e r k p i_{i} (X) i

. Theorem: If

d i m L_{X} = i n f t y

and

l i m s u p (d i m (Q_{X})_{k})^{1 / k} < l i m s u p (d i m (L_{X})_{k})^{1 / k}

then

sum_{i=1}^{n-1} {rk} pi_{k+i}(X) = e^{(alpha + epsilon_k)k} hspace{1cm} {where} epsilon_k o 0 {as} k o infty.

In particular

d i s p l a y s t y l e s u m_{i = 1}^{n - 1} r k p i_{k + i} (X)

grows exponentially in

k
