The $M$-cellular spaces are those one can build from $M$ by using wedges, push-outs, and telescopes (and hence all pointed homotopy colimits). The question we address here is to characterize the class of $M$-cellular spaces by means of algebraic properties derived from the group $G$. We show that the cellular type of the fundamental group and homological information does not suffice, and one is forced to study a certain universal extension.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2007-10-14T16:22:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55P60", "20K45", "55P20" ], "keywords": [ "connection", "two-complexes", "fundamental group", "cellular spaces", "cellularization" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007math......2607R" } } }
