Statement

TODO: This caption

Let p1,p2,p1,p2C([0,1],X) be given. Suppose H1: p1p1 (rel {0,1}) and H2: p2p2 (rel {0,1}) are end point preserving homotopies (where H1,H2:[0,1]×[0,1]X are the specific homotopies of the paths) then[1]:

  • H:p1p2p1p2 (rel {0,1}) where
    • p1p2 denotes path concatenation, explicitly:
      • p1p2:[0,1]X by p1p2:t{p1(2t)for t[0,12]p2(2t1)for t[12,1]
        • Note that the fact t=12 is in both parts is a nod towards the use of the pasting lemma
    • H:=H1H2 - the homotopy concatenation, explicitly:
      • H:[0,1]×[0,1]X by H:(s,t){H1(s,2t)for t[0,12]H2(s,2t1)for t[12,1]
        • Note that the fact t=12 is in both parts is a nod towards the use of the pasting lemma

Proof

Grade: A*
This page requires one or more proofs to be filled in, it is on a to-do list for being expanded with them.
Please note that this does not mean the content is unreliable. Unless there are any caveats mentioned below the statement comes from a reliable source. As always, Warnings and limitations will be clearly shown and possibly highlighted if very important (see template:Caution et al).
The message provided is:
It's basically already done. All we have to show is that the homotopy concatenation, H, fits the requirements
