A note on H-equivalences

Donald William Kahn

Vol. 42 (1972), No. 1, 77–80
Abstract

If X is a space, with base point, the set of homotopy classes of based self-equivalent maps, from X to itself, forms a group, which has been studied by many authors. In this note, we study a related group, in the case where X is an H-space. The main result is that all such groups are finitelypresented. The methods combine results from algebraic topology with combinatorial group theory.
