Beben and Wu showed that if M is a (2 n- 2) -connected (4 n- 1) -dimensional Poincaré Duality complex such that n≥ 3 and H2n(M; Z) consists only of odd torsion, then Ω M can be decomposed up to homotopy as a product of simpler, well-studied spaces. We use a result from Beben and Theriault (Doc Math 27:183-211, 2022) to greatly simplify and enhance Beben and Wu’s work and to extend it in various directions.

Abstract

Beben and Wu showed that if M is a (2 n- 2) -connected (4 n- 1) -dimensional Poincaré Duality complex such that n≥ 3 and H2n(M; Z) consists only of odd torsion, then Ω M can be decomposed up to homotopy as a product of simpler, well-studied spaces. We use a result from Beben and Theriault (Doc Math 27:183-211, 2022) to greatly simplify and enhance Beben and Wu’s work and to extend it in various directions.
