Model structures on the category of ex-spaces

This paper describes several model structures on the categories of ex-spaces and ex-G-spaces when G is a compact Lie group. Two of these are of particular interest in that they have expected applications to the study of transfer maps and to parametrized spectra. These two structures are shown to coincide on the collection of Hurewicz fibrations, and an indication is also given, mainly via examples, of how they differ. The last two sections of this paper are mostly expository; they set forth the model category techniques needed to prove the main theorems.
