On the decomposition of spaces in Cartesian products and unions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 October 2008
Extract
The present paper is concerned with particular cases, obtained by suitably restricting the spaces involved, of the following general problem.
Given a topological space X, we ask whether there exist integers n ≥ 2 and non-contractible spaces X1, …, Xn such that X has the homotopy type of the Cartesian product X1, × … × Xn or of the union X1, v … v Xn.
