Abstract:

In a fibration $\Omega F \overset {\Omega j}{\rightarrow } \Omega X \overset {\Omega \pi }{\rightarrow }\Omega B$ we show that finiteness conditions on $F$ force the homology Serre spectral sequence with $\mathbb {F}_p$-coefficients to collapse at some finite term. This in particular implies that as graded vector spaces, $H_*(\Omega X)$ is “almost” isomorphic to $H_*(\Omega B)\otimes H_*(\Omega F)$. One consequence is the conclusion that $X$ is elliptic if and only if $B$ and $F$ are.
