Kahn-Priddy theorems via the norm

Algebraic Topology 2026-04-15 v1

Abstract

We revisit the Kahn-Priddy theorem from the perspective of modern equivariant homotopy theory. This allows for a short proof that may be applied in other settings with sufficiently robust analogues of multiplicative norms and the Adams isomorphism. We illustrate this by establishing new Kahn-Priddy theorems in LnL_n and LnfL_n^f-local homotopy theory, motivic homotopy theory, and synthetic homotopy theory.
