As an application, we present a new approach to the rational homotopy theory of mapping spaces. For a connected space X and a nilpotent space Y of finite type, the mapping space Map(X,Y_Q) is homotopy equivalent to the infinity-groupoid associated to the completed tensor product of A and L, where A is a commutative differential graded algebra model for X and L is an L-infinity algebra model for Y. This enables us to calculate Sullivan models for the components of Map(X,Y_Q).", "comment": "21 pages", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-08-01T14:48:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55P62", "55U10" ], "keywords": [ "rational homotopy theory", "mapping space", "lie theory", "sullivan models", "l-infinity algebra model" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1110.6145B" } } }
