Question is in the title: How to prove that reduced suspension $\Sigma X=S^1 \wedge X$ (smash product) of pointed space $(X,x_0)$ (and $S^1$) is an $H$-cogroup?

  • Use the tensor-hom adjunction. – Qiaochu Yuan Oct 18 '12 at 21:00
  • Could you be more specific, please. I'm not familiar with tensor-hom adjunction. – Haely Klorson Oct 18 '12 at 21:02

    At least when your spaces are all compactly generated and weak Hausdorff or something like that, the based mapping spaces satisfy the functorial relation $map_(X \wedge Y,Z) \cong map_(X,map_*(Y,Z))$. (Here, smash product is a "tensor product", and the based mapping space is the "internal hom".) – Aaron Mazel-Gee Oct 24 '12 at 23:28
