The Real-oriented cohomology of infinite stunted projective spaces

Abstract

Let ERE\mathbb{R} be an even-periodic Real Landweber exact C2C_2-spectrum, and ERER its spectrum of fixed points. We compute the ERER-cohomology of the infinite stunted projective spectra PjP_j. These cohomology groups combine to form the RO(C2)RO(C_2)-graded coefficient ring of the C2C_2-spectrum b(ER)=F(EC2+,iER)b(ER) = F(EC_{2+},i_\ast ER), which we show is related to ERE\mathbb{R} by a cofiber sequence Σσb(ER)b(ER)ER\Sigma^\sigma b(ER)\rightarrow b(ER)\rightarrow E\mathbb{R}. We illustrate our description of πb(ER)\pi_\star b(ER) with the computation of some ERER-based Mahowald invariants.
