Using methods developed by Franke, we obtain algebraic classification results for modules over certain symmetric ring spectra ($S$-algebras). In particular, for any symmetric ring spectrum $R$ whose graded homotopy ring $\pi_*R$ has graded…
We review and extend the theory of Thom spectra and the associated obstruction theory for orientations. We recall (from May, Quinn, and Ray) that a commutative ring spectrum A has a spectrum of units gl(A). To a map of spectra f: b ->…
For strongly even $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}^{C_2}$-rings $E$ we show that any homotopy ring map $\mathrm{MU} \to E^e$ lifts to an $\mathbb{E}_{\rho}$-map $\mathrm{MU}_{\mathbb{R}} \to E$. This refines the Hahn-Shi Real orientations of Lubin-Tate…
Let $f:G\to \mathrm{Pic}(R)$ be a map of $E_\infty$-groups, where $\mathrm{Pic}(R)$ denotes the Picard space of an $E_\infty$-ring spectrum $R$. We determine the tensor $X\otimes_R Mf$ of the Thom $E_\infty$-$R$-algebra $Mf$ with a space…
The settings for homotopical algebra---categories such as simplicial groups, simplicial rings, $A_\infty$ spaces, $E_\infty$ ring spectra, etc.---are often equivalent to categories of algebras over some monad or triple $T$. In such cases,…
Let $G$ be a group scheme of finite type over a field, and consider the cohomology ring $H^*(G)$ with coefficients in the structure sheaf. We show that $H^*(G)$ is a free module of finite rank over its component of degree 0, and is the…
For groups of prime order, equivariant stable maps between equivariant representation spheres are investigated using the Borel cohomology Adams spectral sequence. Features of the equivariant stable homotopy category, such as stability and…
We construct a new spectrum of units for a commutative symmetric ring spectrum that detects the difference between a periodic ring spectrum and its connective cover. It is augmented over the sphere spectrum. The homotopy cofiber of its…
Given a commutative ring spectrum $R$ let $\Lambda_XR$ be the Loday functor constructed by Brun, Carlson and Dundas. Given a prime $p\geq 5$ we calculate $\pi_*(\Lambda_{S^n}H\mathbb{F}_p)$ and $\pi_*(\Lambda_{T^n}H\mathbb{F}_p)$ for $n\leq…
This paper lays some of the foundations for working with not-necessarily-commutative bialgebras and their categories of comodules in $\infty$-categories. We prove that the categories of comodules and modules over a bialgebra always admit…
This is a survey paper on cohomology theories for $A_\infty$ and $E_\infty$ ring spectra. Different constructions and main properties of topological Andr\'e-Quillen cohomology and of topological derivations are described. We give sample…
We show that the vector bundle on the moduli stack $M_\mathrm{ell}$ of elliptic curves associated to the $2$-cell complex $C\nu$ is isomorphic to the de Rham cohomology sheaf $\mathrm{H}^1_\mathrm{dR}(\mathcal{E}/M_\mathrm{ell})$ of the…
For any natural numbers $k \leq n$, the rational cohomology ring of the space of continuous maps $S^{2k-1} \to S^{2n-1}$ (respectively, $S^{4k-1} \to S^{4n-1}$) equivariant under the Hopf action of the circle (respectively, of the group…
We initiate a program aimed at classifying thick ideals, Balmer spectra, and submodule categories of various stable categories of bimodules and modules for finite dimensional selfinjective algebras, and at clarifying the relationship…
Let G be an exceptional Lie group with a maximal torus T. Based on common properties in the Schubert presentation of the cohomology ring H*(G/T;F_{p}) DZ1, and concrete expressions of generalized Weyl invariants for G over F_{p}, we obtain…
We introduce new polynomial invariants of a finite-dimensional semisimple and cosemisimple Hopf algebra A over a field by using the braiding structures of A. We investigate basic properties of the polynomial invariants including stability…
Let A be an A_\infty ring spectrum. We use the description from [2] of the cyclic bar and cobar construction to give a direct definition of topological Hochschild homology and cohomology of A using the Stasheff associahedra and another…
We approach a problem of realising algebraic objects in a certain universal equivariant stable homotopy theory; the global homotopy theory of Schwede. Specifically, for a global ring spectrum $R$, we consider which classes of ring…
In this paper we identify conditions under which the cohomology $H^*(\Omega M\xi;\k)$ for the loop space $\Omega M\xi$ of the Thom space $M\xi$ of a spherical fibration $\xi\downarrow B$ can be a polynomial ring. We use the Eilenberg-Moore…
For any $E_\infty$ ring spectrum $E$, we show that there is an algebra $\mathrm{Pow}(E)$ of stable power operations that acts naturally on the underlying spectrum of any $E$-algebra. Further, we show that there are maps of rings $E \to…
