Rational homotopy of maps between certain complex Grassmann manifolds

Publication date 22 February 2018

Abstract: Let

G_{n, k}

denote the complex Grassmann manifold of

k

-dimensional vector subspaces of

m a t h b b C^{n}

. Assume

l, k l e l f l o o r n / 2 f l o o r

. We show that, for sufficiently large

n

, any continuous map

h : G_{n, l} o G_{n, k}

is rationally null homotopic if

(i) 1 l e k < l,

(i i) 2 < l < k < 2 (l - 1)

,

(i i i) 1 < l < k

,

l

divides

n

but

l

does not divide

k

.
