  • Abstract
    We prove the so-called Lemaire-Sigrist conjecture for 1-connected Poincaré complexes, namely that for such spaces rational Lusternik-Schnirelmann category equals rational cone length. We also prove that the attachment of the top cell in such a space raises rational L-S category by one.
