Abstract

In this paper we prove the generalized version of the same n-type conjecture posed by McGibbon and Møller in [15, page 287]: it is shown that the set of all the same homotopy n-types of the suspension of the smash products of the Eilenberg-MacLane spaces is the one element set consisting of a single homotopy type.
