The simplicial suspension sequence in $\mathbb{A}^1\mskip-2mu$–homotopy

Aravind Asok, Kirsten Wickelgren and Ben Williams

Geometry & Topology 21 (2017) 2093–2160
Abstract

We study a version of the James model for the loop space of a suspension in unstable A1 –homotopy theory. We use this model to establish an analog of G W Whitehead’s classical refinement of the Freudenthal suspension theorem in A1 –homotopy theory: our result refines F Morel’s A1 –simplicial suspension theorem. We then describe some E1 –differentials in the EHP sequence in A1 –homotopy theory. These results are analogous to classical results of G W Whitehead. Using these tools, we deduce some new results about unstable A1 –homotopy sheaves of motivic spheres, including the counterpart of a classical rational nonvanishing result.
