On the Homotopy Groups of the Suspended Quaternionic Projective Plane and Applications

Abstract

In this paper, we determined the $2,3$-components of the homotopy groups $\pi _{r+k}(\Sigma ^{k}\mathbb{H}P^{2})$ for all $ 7\leq r\leq15$ and all $\;k\geq0$, especially for the unstable ones. And we gave the applications, including the classification theorems of the 1-connected CW complexes having CW types of the suspended $\mathbb{H} P^{3}$ localized at 3 , and the decompositions of the suspended self smashes.
