Abstract

The classical problem of algebraic models for homotopy types is precisely stated here in terms of our ability to compute with the models. Two dierent natural statements for this problem are produced, the simplest one being entirely solved by the notion of SSEH-structure, due to the authors. Other tentative solutions, Postnikov towers and E1-chain complexes, are considered and compared with the SSEH-structures. In particular, an imprecision in the usual definition of the k-“invariants” is explained, which implies we seem far from a solution for the ideal statement of our problem. On the positive side, the problem stated below in the framed quotation is solved. As yet we are ignorant of an eective method of computing the cohomology of a Postnikov complex from …n and kn+1 [11].
