Extract

Exact sequences which can be used for calculating the group (X) of homotopy classes of homotopy self-equivalences of a space X are known in the case of cellular decompositions (some references are given in § 1 of [8]), and in the case of Postnikov decompositions (for example 3·1 of [5]). Here we obtain exact sequences which can be used to calculate (X) using a simply-connected homology decomposition.
