Abstract

Let EnE_n be Morava EE-theory of height nn. Let RR be a pp-adically flat commutative ring spectrum. Then the Tate-valued Frobenius map endows π0R\pi_0 R with the structure of a δ\delta-ring. On the other hand, we may form the K(n)K(n)-completed tensor product LK(n)(REn)L_{K(n)}(R \otimes E_n), which is a K(n)K(n)-local EnE_n-algebra. Then π0(LK(n)(REn))=LTn^π0R\pi_0(L_{K(n)}(R \otimes E_n)) = LT_n \widehat{\otimes} \pi_0 R admits the structure of an algebra over the monad T(n)\mathbb{T}(n) defined by Rezk. The T(n)\mathbb{T}(n)-algebra structure encodes the power operations of LK(n)(REn)L_{K(n)}(R \otimes E_n). In this paper we describe the T(n)\mathbb{T}(n)-algebra structure on π0(LK(n)(REn))\pi_0(L_{K(n)}(R \otimes E_n)).
