Let E be a k-local profinite G-Galois extension of an E_infty-ring spectrum A (in the sense of Rognes). We show that E may be regarded as producing a discrete G-spectrum. Also, we prove that if E is a profaithful k-local profinite extension…
When G is a profinite group and H and K are closed subgroups, with H normal in K, it is not known, in general, how to form the iterated homotopy fixed point spectrum (Z^{hH})^{hK/H}, where Z is a continuous G-spectrum and all group actions…
For a profinite group $G$, let $(\text{-})^{hG}$, $(\text{-})^{h_dG}$, and $(\text{-})^{h'G}$ denote continuous homotopy fixed points for profinite $G$-spectra, discrete $G$-spectra, and continuous $G$-spectra (coming from towers of…
Let E_n be the n-th Lubin-Tate spectrum at a prime p. There is a commutative S-algebra E^{nr}_n whose coefficients are built from the coefficients of E_n and contain all roots of unity whose order is not divisible by p. For odd primes p we…
The problem addressed is the classification up to conjugation of the finite subgroups of the (classical) Morava stabilizer group S_n and the extended Morava stabilizer group G_n(u) associated to a formal group law F of height n over the…
We consider brave new cochain extensions $F(BG_+,R)\to F(EG_+,R)$, where $R$ is either a Lubin-Tate spectrum $E_n$ or the related 2-periodic Morava K-theory $K_n$, and $G$ is a finite group. When $R$ is an Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectrum, in…
In this note, we show how a continuous action of the Morava stabilizer group $\mathbb G_n$ on the Lubin-Tate spectrum $E_n$, satisfying the conclusion $E_n^{h\mathbb G_n}\simeq L_{K(n)} S$ of the Devinatz-Hopkins Theorem, may be obtained by…
Let n \geq 1 and let p be any prime. Also, let E_n be the Lubin-Tate spectrum, G_n the extended Morava stabilizer group, and K(n) the nth Morava K-theory spectrum. Then work of Devinatz and Hopkins and some results due to Behrens and the…
Using the pro\'etale site, we construct models for the continuous actions of the Morava stabiliser group on Morava E-theory, its $\infty$-category of $K(n)$-local modules, and its Picard spectrum. For the two sheaves of spectra, we evaluate…
We introduce the notion of a Galois extension of commutative S-algebras (E_infty ring spectra), often localized with respect to a fixed homology theory. There are numerous examples, including some involving Eilenberg-Mac Lane spectra of…
The primary goal of this paper is to study Spanier-Whitehead duality in the $K(n)$-local category. One of the key players in the $K(n)$-local category is the Lubin-Tate spectrum $E_n$, whose homotopy groups classify deformations of a formal…
We construct a stable model structure on profinite symmetric spectra with a continuous action of an arbitrary profinite group. This provides a natural framework for a new construction of homotopy fixed point spectra and of homotopy fixed…
Let $n \geq 1$, $p$ a prime, and $T(n)$ any representative of the Bousfield class of the telescope $v_n^{-1}F(n)$ of a finite type $n$ complex. Also, let $E_n$ be the Lubin-Tate spectrum, $K(E_n)$ its algebraic $K$-theory spectrum, and…
Let $G$ be a group and let $K$ be a commensurated subgroup of $G$. Then there is a totally disconnected, locally compact (t.d.l.c.) group $\hat{G}_K$ that contains the profinite completion of $K$ as an open compact subgroup and also…
Let us take for granted that L_{K(n)}S^0 --> E_n is some kind of a G_n-Galois extension. Of course, this is in the setting of continuous G_n-spectra. How much structure does this continuous G-Galois extension have? How much structure does…
We compute the mod(p) homotopy groups of the continuous homotopy fixed point spectrum E_2^{hH_2} for p>2, where E_n is the Landweber exact spectrum whose coefficient ring is the ring of functions on the Lubin-Tate moduli space of lifts of…
Let n be any positive integer and p any prime. Also, let X be any spectrum and let K(n) denote the nth Morava K-theory spectrum. Then we construct a descent spectral sequence with abutment pi_*(L_{K(n)}(X)) and E_2-term equal to the…
We investigate a dense subgroup Gamma of the second Morava stabilizer group given by a certain group of quasi-isogenies of a supersingular elliptic curve in characteristic p. The group Gamma acts on the Bruhat-Tits building for GL_2(Q_l)…
For a profinite group $G$, we define an $S[[G]]$-module to be a certain type of $G$-spectrum $X$ built from an inverse system $\{X_i\}_i$ of $G$-spectra, with each $X_i$ naturally a $G/N_i$-spectrum, where $N_i$ is an open normal subgroup…
We determine the Gross-Hopkins duals of certain higher real $K$-theory spectra. More specifically, let $p$ be an odd prime, and consider the Morava $E$-theory spectrum of height $n=p-1$. It is known, in the expert circles, that for certain…
