= Cofibration
{wiki=Cofibration}
In topology, a cofibration is a specific type of map between topological spaces that satisfies certain conditions. Cofibrations play a crucial role in homotopy theory and the study of fibration and cofibration sequences. They are often defined in terms of the homotopy extension property. \#\#\# Definition: A map \\( i : A \\to X \\) is called a **cofibration** if it satisfies the homotopy extension property with respect to any space \\( Y \\).
