Strickland gave an interpretation of a quotient of the Morava $E$-theory of symmetric groups in terms of algebraic geometry. We identify an analogous quotient of the Morava $E$-theory of wreath products of symmetric groups with a tensor…
Let $A$ be a finite abelian $p$ group of rank at least $2$. We show that $E^0(BA)/I_{tr}$, the quotient of the Morava $E$-cohomology of $A$ by the ideal generated by the image of the transfers along all proper subgroups, contains…
We study the relationship between the transchromatic localizations of Morava $E$-theory, $L_{K(n-1)}E_n$, and formal groups. In particular, we show that the coefficient ring $\pi_0L_{K(n-1)}E_n$ has a modular interpretation, representing…
In "Generalized Group Characters and Complex Oriented Cohomology Theories", Hopkins, Kuhn, and Ravenel develop a way to study cohomology rings of the form E^*(BG) in terms of a character map. The character map can be interpreted as a map of…
We compute the completed E(n) cohomology of the classifying spaces of the symmetric groups, and relate the answer to the theory of finite subgroups of formal groups.
By studying the representation theory of a certain infinite $p$-group and using the generalised characters of Hopkins, Kuhn and Ravenel we find useful ways of understanding the rational Morava $E$-theory of the classifying spaces of general…
The purpose of this note is to verify that several basic rings appearing in transchromatic homotopy theory are Noetherian excellent normal domains and thus amenable to standard techniques from commutative algebra. In particular, we show…
We modify the transchromatic character maps to land in a faithfully flat extension of Morava E-theory. Our construction makes use of the interaction between topological and algebraic localization and completion. As an application we prove…
We prove a congruence criterion for the algebraic theory of power operations in Morava E-theory, analogous to Wilkerson's congruence criterion for torsion free lambda-rings. In addition, we provide a geometric description of this congruence…
In this paper, we study a family of new quantum groups labelled by a prime number $p$ and a natural number $n$ constructed using the Morava $E$-theories. We define the quantum Frobenius homomorphisms among these quantum groups. This is a…
Twisted Morava K-theory, along with computational techniques, including a universal coefficient theorem and an Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence, was introduced by Craig Westerland and the first author. We employ these techniques to…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p$. Associated to any (1-dimensional, commutative) formal group law of finite height $n$ over $k$ there is a complex oriented cohomology theory represented by a spectrum denoted $E(n)$ and…
This expository paper introduces several ideas in chromatic homotopy theory around Morava's extraordinary E-theories. In particular, we construct various moduli problems closely related to Lubin-Tate deformation theory and study their…
Ando established an algebraic criterion for when a complex orientation for a Morava E-theory is an $H_\infty$-map. The criterion relates such an orientation to a specific property of the formal group associated to the E-theory, namely, a…
For cohomology theories closely related to Morava E-theory, we provide an algebro-geometric interpretation of the cohomology of groups that arise as centralizers of tuples of commuting elements inside of symmetric groups. The interpretation…
For an integral cohomology class H of degree n+2 on a space X, we define twisted Morava K-theory K(n)(X; H) at the prime 2, as well as an integral analogue. We explore properties of this twisted cohomology theory, study a twisted…
In the present article we discuss an approach to cohomological invariants of algebraic groups over fields of characteristic zero based on the Morava $K$-theories, which are generalized oriented cohomology theories in the sense of…
We construct and study an algebraic theory which closely approximates the theory of power operations for Morava E-theory, extending previous work of Charles Rezk in a way that takes completions into account. These algebraic structures are…
We deform the Ravenel-Wilson computation of the Morava K-homology of Eilenberg-Mac Lane spaces to obtain a similar description of their completed Morava E-homology. This yields both a cohomological description and an interpretation on the…
We study a certain monoid of endofunctors of the stable homotopy category that includes localizations with respect to finite unions of Morava $K$-theories. We work in an axiomatic framework that can also be applied to analogous questions in…
