We propose a way to organise the subject of ``higher-order homological stability'', in the context of a graded $E_2$-algebra $\mathbf{R}$, along the same lines that the chromatic perspective organises stable homotopy theory. From this point…
We calculate the homotopy type of $L_1L_{K(2)}S^0$ and $L_{K(1)}L_{K(2)}S^0$ at the prime 2, where $L_{K(n)}$ is localization with respect to Morava $K$-theory and $L_1$ localization with respect to $2$-local $K$ theory. In $L_1L_{K(2)}S^0$…
We extend the result of Blumberg and Mandell on K-theoretic Tate-Poitou duality at odd primes which serves as a spectral refinement of the classical arithmetic Tate-Poitou duality. The duality is formulated for the $K(1)$-localized…
We show that the characteristic polynomial and the Lefschetz zeta function are manifestations of the trace map from the $K$-theory of endomorphisms to topological restriction homology (TR). Along the way we generalize Lindenstrauss and…
We define a filtration by open substacks on the non-connective spectral moduli stack of formal oriented groups, which simultaneously encodes and relates the chromatic filtration of spectra and the height stratification of the classical…
Combinatorics, in particular graph theory, has a rich history of being a domain of successful applications of tools from other areas of mathematics, including topological methods. Here, we survey the study of the Hom-complexes, and the ways…
As a consequence of the algebraicity of chromatic homotopy at large primes, we show that the Hopkins' Picard group of the $K(n)$-local category coincides with the algebraic one when $2p-2 > n^{2}+n$.
Our results are of three types. First we describe a general procedure of adjoining polynomial variables to $A_\infty$-ring spectra whose coefficient rings satisfy certain restrictions.A host of examples of such spectra is provided by…
Let $R$ be a ring spectrum and $ E\to X$ an $R$-module bundle of rank $n$. Our main result is to identify the homotopy type of the group-like monoid of homotopy automorphisms of this bundle, $hAut^R(E)$. This will generalize the result…
Using basic homotopy constructions, we show that isomorphism classes of string structures on spin bundles are naturally given by certain degree 3 cohomology classes, which we call string classes, on the total space of the bundle. Using a…
In the presence of a nonzero B-field, the symmetries of the $\mathrm E_8\times \mathrm E_8$ heterotic string form a 2-group, or a categorified group, as do the symmetries of the CHL string. We express the bordism groups of the corresponding…
Making use of the extended flux homomorphism on the group of symplectomorphisms of a closed oriented surface of genus at least 2, we introduce new characteristic classes of foliated surface bundles with symplectic, equivalently…
Cobordism offers a unique perspective into the non-perturbative sector of string theory by demanding the absence of higher form global symmetries for quantum gravitational consistency. In this work we compute the spin cobordism groups of…
Fix a prime $p$ and a chromatic height $h$. We prove that the homotopy $(k,1)$-category of $L_h$-local spectra $\mathrm{h}_k\big(\mathrm{Sp}_{p,h}\big)$ is algebraic as a symmetric monoidal category when $p > O(h^2+kh)$. To achieve this, we…
This paper begins with an exposition of the author's research on the category of BP_*BP-comodules, much of which is joint with Neil Strickland. The main result of that work is that the category of E(n)_*E(n)-comodules is equivalent to a…
We construct a stable infinity category with objects flow categories and morphisms flow bimodules; our construction has many flavors, related to a choice of bordism theory, and we discuss in particular framed bordism and the bordism theory…
We characterize ring spectra morphisms from the algebraic cobordism spectrum $\QTR{Bbb}{MGL}$ (\QCITE{cite}{}{Vo1}) to an oriented spectrum $\QTR{Bbb}{E}$ (in the sense of Morel \QCITE{cite}{}{Mo}) via formal group laws on the…
The notions of Betti numbers and of Bass numbers of a finite module N over a local ring R are extended to modules that are only assumed to be finite over S, for some local homomorphism f: R --> S. Various techniques are developed to study…
We reconstruct hermitian K-theory via algebraic symplectic cobordism. In the motivic stable homotopy category SH(S) there is a unique morphism g : MSp -> BO of commutative ring T- spectra which sends the Thom class th^{MSp} to the Thom…
We introduce a notion of characteristic for connective $p$-local $E_\infty$ ring spectra and study some basic properties. Apart from examples already pointed out by Markus Szymik, we investigate some examples built from Hopf invariant $1$…
