A $v_1$-banded vanishing line for the mod 2 Moore spectrum

Algebraic Topology 2023-08-25 v2

Abstract

The mod 2 Moore spectrum C(2)C(2) is the cofiber of the self-map 2:SS2: \mathbb{S} \to \mathbb{S}. Building on work of Burklund, Hahn, and Senger, we prove that above a line of slope 15\frac{1}{5}, the Adams spectral sequence for C(2)C(2) collapses at its E5E_5-page and characterize the surviving classes. This completes the proof of a result of Mahowald, announced in 1970, but never proven.
