The cyclotomic trace for symmetric ring spectra

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a simple and explicit construction of the Bokstedt-Hsiang-Madsen cyclotomic trace relating algebraic K-theory and topological cyclic homology. Our construction also incorporates Goodwillie's idea of a global cyclotomic trace.
