%0 Journal Article %T Homotopy classes of Newtonian spaces %A Elefterios Soultanis %J Mathematics %D 2013 %I arXiv %X We study notions of homotopy in the Newtonian space $N^{1,p}(X;Y)$ of Sobolev type maps between metric spaces. After studying the properties and relations of two different notions we prove a compactness result for sequences in homotopy classes with controlled homotopies. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1309.6472v6
