Let E=BP<n> denote the Johnson-Wilson spectrum, localized at p. It is proved that if E_*(X) is locally finite, then there is an isomorphism of right E_*-modules E^*(X) = (E_*(Sigma^{D+n+1}X))^V, where D=Sum |v_i| and M^V=Hom(M,Q/Z) is the…

Relying on the computation of the Andre-Quillen homology groups for unstable Hopf algebras, we prove that the mod p cohomology of the n-connected cover of a finite H-space is always finitely generated as algebra over the Steenrod algebra.

Let p be an odd prime. Let G be a p-local finite group over the extraspecial p-group p_+^{1+2}. In this paper we study the cohomology and the stable splitting of their p-complete classifying space BG.

Let X be a normal complex algebraic variety, and p a prime. We show that there exists an integer N=N(X, p) such that: any non-trivial, irreducible representation of the fundamental group of X, which arises from geometry, must be non-trivial…

We study the mod $p$ cohomology ring of the classifying space $BPU(p)$ of the projective unitary group $PU(p)$, when $p$ is an odd prime. We prove a mod $p$ formula analogous to a formula of Vistoli for the integral cohomology ring of…

Fix an odd prime $p$ and let $X$ be the $p$-localization of a finite suspended $CW$-complex. Given certain conditions on the reduced mod-$p$ homology $\bar H_*(X;\zmodp)$ of $X$, we use a decomposition of $\Omega\Sigma X$ due to the second…

In this note we show that a $p$-complete nilpotent space $X$ has a $p$-complete suspension spectrum if and only if its homotopy groups $\pi_*X$ are bounded $p$-torsion. In contrast, if $\pi_*X$ is not all bounded $p$-torsion, we locate…

Let p be an odd prime. Let K_p = \Q(zeta_p) be the p-cyclotomic field. We apply a Kummer and Stickelberger relation of K_p to some singular not primary numbers A of K_p connected to p-class group of K_p and prove they verify the congruence…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. Denote a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $GL_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^n)$ and $SL_2(\mathbb{Z}/p^n)$ by $S_p(n,GL)$ and $S_p(n,SL)$ respectively. The theory of stable elements tells us that the mod-$p$ cohomology of a finite group is…

In this paper we consider classifying spaces of a family of $p$-groups and we prove that mod $p$ cohomology enriched with Bockstein spectral sequences determines their homotopy type among $p$-completed CW-complexes. We end with some…

In this paper, we compute ${\rm Ext}_{A}^{s}(\widetilde{H}^*(B\mathbb{Z}/p),\mathbb{F}_p)$ for $s\leq 1$. Using this result, we investigate the behavior of $\varphi_3^{\mathbb{F}_p}$ and $\varphi_s^{\widetilde{H}^*(B\mathbb{Z}/p)}\…

We study the mod $p$ motivic cohomology of homogeneous varieties such as $GL_{n}/GL_{r}$ or $Sp_{2n}/Sp_{2n-2}$ along with the action of the Steenrod operations, without restrictions on the characteristic of the base field. In particular,…

Is the cohomology of the classifying space of a p-compact group, with Noetherian twisted coefficients, a Noetherian module? This note provides, over the ring of p-adic integers, such a generalization to p-compact groups of the Evens-Venkov…

In this paper, we compute the BP-cohomology of complex projective Stiefel manifolds. The method involves the homotopy fixed point spectral sequence, and works for complex oriented cohomology theories. We also use these calculations and…
