Extract

In a series of papers [13, 14, 15], Hilton introduced the terminology relative group to denote a group epimorphism ∈:G↠Q, and relative space to denote a map ƒ:E→B between connected spaces inducing an epimorphism of fundamental groups. He pointed out the desirability of relativizing the theory of P-localization of nilpotent groups and spaces developed in [17], and carried out the algebraic part of this project in [14, 16]. The homotopy-theoretic part was settled by Llerena in [18, 19].
