Spaces of positive intermediate curvature metrics

In this paper we study spaces of Riemannian metrics with lower bounds on intermediate curvatures. We show that the spaces of metrics of positive p-curvature and k-positive Ricci curvature on a given high-dimensional $$\mathrm {Spin}$$ Spin -manifold have many non-trivial homotopy groups provided that the manifold admits such a metric.
