Abstract Greenlees has conjectured that the rational stable equivariant homotopy category of a compact Lie group always has an algebraic model. Based on this idea, we show that the category of rational local systems on a connected finite loop space always has a simple algebraic model. When the loop space arises from a connected compact Lie group, this recovers a special case of a result of Pol and Williamson about rational cofree G-spectra. More generally, we show that if K is a closed subgroup of a compact Lie group G such that the Weyl group W G K is connected, then a certain category of rational G-spectra “at K” has an algebraic model. For example, when K is the trivial group, this is just the category of rational cofree G-spectra, and this recovers the aforementioned result. Throughout, we pay careful attention to the role of torsion and complete categories.

We consider the universal phantom map out of a non-finite loop space. First we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for the universal phantom map out of ΩG for a simply connected compact Lie group G to be essential. Next we prove that the universal phantom map out of ΩkX is essential for all k ≥ 2 if X is a simply connected non-contractible finite CW-complex. Ingredients in the proof are the Browder's ∞-implication argument and the Eilenberg–Moore spectral sequence.

This paper takes a detailed look at a subject that occurs in various contexts in mathematics, the fixed-point sets of torus actions on flag manifolds, and considers it from the (perhaps nontraditional) perspective of moment maps and length functions on Weyl groups. The approach comes from earlier work of the author where it is shown that certain singular flows in the Hamiltonian system known as the Toda lattice generate the action of a group A on a flag manifold, where A is a direct product of a non-maximal torus and unipotent group. As a first step in understanding the orbits of A in connection with the Toda lattice, this paper seeks to understand the fixed points of the non-maximal tori in this setting.
