Goodwillie calculus and Whitehead products

Jérôme Scherer

We prove that iterated Whitehead products of length. (n+1) vanish in any value of an n-excisive functor in the sense of Goodwillie. We compare then different notions of homotopy nilpotency, from the Berstein-Ganea definition to the Biedermann-Dwyer one. Th ...
