Prerequisites in Algebraic Topology
by Bjorn Ian Dundas
Publisher: NTNU 2005
Number of pages: 55
Description:
This is not an introductory textbook in algebraic topology, these notes attempt to give a quick overview of the parts of algebraic topology, and in particular homotopy theory, which are needed in order to appreciate that side of motivic homotopy theory.

A Primer on Homotopy Colimitsby Daniel Dugger - University of Oregon
This is an expository paper on homotopy colimits and homotopy limits. These are constructions which should arguably be in the toolkit of every modern algebraic topologist. Many proofs are avoided, or perhaps just sketched.

The Geometry of Iterated Loop Spacesby J. P. May - Springer
A paper devoted to the study of iterated loop spaces. Our goal is to develop a simple and coherent theory which encompasses most of the known results about such spaces. We begin with some history and a description of the desiderata of such a theory.
