In this paper we construct a commutative differential graded algebra which is a potential candidate for a model of the rational homotopy type of F(M,k). We prove that our model it is at least a Sigma_k-equivariant differential graded model. We also study Lefschetz duality at the level of cochains and describe equivariant models of the complement of a union of polyhedra in a closed manifold.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2008-03-18T18:19:14.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55R80", "55P62" ], "keywords": [ "configuration space", "dg-module model", "rational homotopy type", "study lefschetz duality", "equivariant models" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0707.2350L" } } }
