Abstract :
We compute the monoid of essential self-maps of S n × S n fixing the diagonal. More generally, we consider products S × S , where S is a suspension. Essential self-maps of S × S demonstrate the interplay between the pinching action for a mapping cone and the fundamental action on homotopy classes under a space. We compute examples with non-trivial fundamental actions.
