Translation evidence: Literature usage

Meaning in context

For a based CW complex X, the colimit of pi_{k+r}(Sigma^r X) under suspension homomorphisms, with r large enough to use group-valued degrees.

对带基点 CW 复形 XX,沿悬挂同态取 πk+r(ΣrX)\pi_{k+r}(\Sigma^rX) 的余极限,rr 从群结构已定义的充分大值开始。

Example

For sphere stems, π0s≅Z\pi_0^s\cong\mathbb Z and π1s≅Z/2\pi_1^s\cong\mathbb Z/2.

Usage and distinctions

For spheres the target is S^r; adding a disjoint basepoint to X changes the reduced suspension-spectrum convention.
