In recent work by Clarke, Crossley and the second author, various algebras of stable degree zero operations in p-local K-theory were described explicitly. The elements are certain infinite sums of Adams operations. Here we show how to make…
For stable degree zero operations, and also for additive unstable operations of bidegree (0,0), it is known that the centre of the ring of operations for complex cobordism is isomorphic to the corresponding ring of connective complex…
We describe explicitly the algebras of degree zero operations in connective and periodic p-local complex K-theory. Operations are written uniquely in terms of certain infinite linear combinations of Adams operations, and we give formulas…
We describe additive (unstable) operations from a theory A^* obtained from Algebraic Cobordism of M.Levine-F.Morel by change of coefficients to any oriented cohomology theory B^*. We prove that there is 1-to-1 correspondence between the set…
A p-local compact group is an algebraic object modelled on the p-local homotopy theory of classifying spaces of compact Lie groups and p-compact groups. In the study of these objects unstable Adams operations, are of fundamental importance.…
In this article we construct Symmetric operations for all primes (previously known only for p=2). These unstable operations are more subtle than the Landweber-Novikov operations, and encode all p-primary divisibilities of characteristic…
A $p$-local compact group is an algebraic object modelled on the homotopy theory associated with $p$-completed classifying spaces of compact Lie groups and p-compact groups. In particular $p$-local compact groups give a unified framework in…
Localized at almost all primes, we describe the structure of differentials in several important spectral sequences that compute the cohomology of classifying spaces of topological Kac-Moody groups. In particular, we show that for all but a…
We analyze the structure of the virtual (orbifold) K-theory ring of the complex orbifold P(1,n) and its virtual Adams (or power) operations, by using the non-Abelian localization theorem of Edidin-Graham. In particular, we identify the…
In this article we classify additive operations in connective K-theory with various torsion-free coefficients. We discover that the answer for the integral case requires understanding of the $\hat{{\mathbb{Z}}}$ one. Moreover, although…
We prove in this paper that every $p$-local compact group is approximated by transporter systems over finite $p$-groups. To do so, we use unstable Adams operations acting on a given $p$-local compact group and study the structure of…
Let $Q$ be a commutative, Noetherian ring and $Z \subseteq \operatorname{Spec}(Q)$ a closed subset. Define $K_0^Z(Q)$ to be the Grothendieck group of those bounded complexes of finitely generated projective $Q$-modules that have homology…
We consider the Green ring $R_{KC}$ for a cyclic $p$-group $C$ over a field $K$ of prime characteristic $p$ and determine the Adams operations $\psi^n$ in the case where $n$ is not divisible by $p$. This gives information on the…
For any odd prime $p$ and any integer $n>0$ with $p^2|n$, we show that the mod $p$ cohomology ring of the classifying space of the projective unitary group $PU(n)$ is not completely detected by elementary abelian $p$-subgroups, providing…
We give a proof of the cobordism invariance of the index of elliptic pseudodifferential operators on sigma-compact manifolds, where, in the non-compact case, the operators are assumed to be multiplication outside a compact set. We show…
We describe bialgebras of lower-indexed algebraic Steenrod operations over the field with p elements, p an odd prime. These go beyond the operations that can act nontrivially in topology, and their duals are closely related to algebras of…
We show that the Adams operations in complex K-theory lift to operations in smooth K-theory. The main result is a Riemann-Roch type theorem about the compatibility of the Adams operations and the integration in smooth K-theory.
We calculate geometric and homotopical (or stable) bordism rings associated to semi-free $S^1$ actions on complex manifolds, giving explicit generators for the geometric theory. The classification of semi-free actions with isolated fixed…
We prove that exterior powers of (skew-)symmetric bundles induce a $\lambda$-ring structure on the ring $GW^0(X) \oplus GW^2(X)$, when $X$ is a scheme where $2$ is invertible. Using this structure, we define stable Adams operations on…
We prove analogues for odd primes of results of Snaith and Barker-Snaith. Let l denote the p-complete connective Adams summand and consider the group of left l-module automorphisms of l smash l in the stable homotopy category which induce…
