Subject: Re: conf & question Date: Tue, 12 Aug 2003 10:10:15 -0400 (EDT) From: "John R. Klein" To: Don Davis The example of G-spaces is a special case of a algebra over a triple (defined by the functor X --> X x G). If I remember correctly, Rainer Vogt (or maybe Vogt and Schwaezl) proved a result which says that a alebras over a triple (on spaces) form a model category. (I think this goes back to the 1970s.) If one is willing to work with a Quillen type notion of weak equivalence: X -> Y is a weak equivalence if it's a weak homotopy equivalence of underlying spaces, then G-spaces can be equipped with a model structure where the cofibrant spaces are retracts of free G-cellular spaces. > > Subject: cofibrant G-space > Date: Tue, 12 Aug 2003 11:46:18 +0200 (MEST) > From: Philippe Gaucher > > There exists on the category of topological spaces a model structure > where > the weak equivalences are the homotopy equivalences (Strom).
