Abstract

The n-fold free loop space ΩnSnX is for connected spaces X weakly equivalent to a simpler space CnX, which has a natural filtration Finr CnX. It is well known that there is a splitting StFr(CnX) ≃V pm=1 St(Fm(CnX)¦Fm−1(CnX) inducing a stable splitting of CnX. We give a simple construction for such a splitting with comparatively low estimates for the number t of necessary suspension coordinates.
