In the 1980's, Mahowald and Kane used integral Brown--Gitler spectra to decompose $ku \wedge ku$ as a sum of finitely generated $ku$-module spectra. This splitting, along with an analogous decomposition of $ko \wedge ko,$ led to a great…
We compute ku^*(K(Z/p,2)) and ku_*(K(Z/p,2)), the connective KU-cohomology and connective KU-homology groups of the mod-p Eilenberg-MacLane space K(Z/p,2), using the Adams spectral sequence. We obtain a striking interaction between…
We describe explicitly the algebras of degree zero operations in connective and periodic p-local complex K-theory. Operations are written uniquely in terms of certain infinite linear combinations of Adams operations, and we give formulas…
Let $A = \bigoplus_{i \geqslant 0} A_i$ be a graded locally finite $k$-algebra such that $A_0$ is an arbitrary finite-dimensional algebra satisfying a certain splitting condition. In this paper we develop a generalized Koszul theory…
Let p>3 be a prime, let ku be the connective complex K-theory spectrum, and let K(ku) be the algebraic K-theory spectrum of ku. We study the p-primary homotopy type of the spectrum K(ku) by computing its mod (p,v_1) homotopy groups. We show…
We compute the algebraic K-theory modulo p and v_1 of the S-algebra ell/p = k(1), using topological cyclic homology. We use this to compute the homotopy cofiber of a transfer map K(L/p) --> K(L_p), which we interpret as the algebraic…
Let kq denote the very effective cover of the motivic Hermitian K-theory spectrum. We analyze the ring of cooperations $\pi^\mathbb{R}_{**}(\text{kq} \otimes \text{kq})$ in the stable motivic homotopy category $\text{SH}(\mathbb{R})$,…
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…
In recent work by Clarke, Crossley and the second author, various algebras of stable degree zero operations in p-local K-theory were described explicitly. The elements are certain infinite sums of Adams operations. Here we show how to make…
We develop a new algorithm to compute a basis for $M_k(\Gamma_0(N))$, the space of weight $k$ holomorphic modular forms on $\Gamma_0(N)$, in the case when the graded algebra of modular forms over $\Gamma_0(N)$ is generated at weight two.…
Gelfand, Retakh, Serconek and Wilson, in \cite{GRSW}, defined a graded algebra $A_\Gamma$ attached to any finite ranked poset $\Gamma$ - a generalization of the universal algebra of pseudo-roots of noncommutative polynomials. This algebra…
Two decades ago P. Martin and D. Woodcock made a surprising and prophetic link between statistical mechanics and representation theory. They observed that the decomposition numbers of the blob algebra (that appeared in the context of…
Let $A = \bigoplus_{i \geqslant 0} A_i$ be a graded locally finite $k$-algebra such that $A_0$ is an arbitrary finite-dimensional algebra satisfying some splitting condition. In this paper we develop a generalized Koszul theory generalizing…
A new basis of the $q$-Brauer algebra is introduced, which is a lift of Murphy bases of Hecke algebras of symmetric groups. This basis is a cellular basis in the sense of Graham and Lehrer. Subsequently, using combinatorial language we…
The aim of this paper is to gain explicit information about the multiplicative structure of l_*l, where l is the connective Adams summand. Our approach differs from Kane's or Lellmann's because our main technical tool is the MU-based…
From our work on partition functions in log gravity, we show that the palindromic numerators in two variables of bigraded symmetric orbifold Hilbert series take the form of sums of products of Kostka-Foulkes polynomials associated with a…
Motivated by his work on the stable rank filtration of algebraic K-theory spectra, Rognes defined a simplicial complex called the common basis complex and conjectured that this complex is highly connected for local rings and Euclidean…
We construct a zig-zag from the once delooped space of pseudoisotopies of a closed $2n$-disc to the once looped algebraic $K$-theory space of the integers and show that the maps involved are $p$-locally $(2n-4)$-connected for $n>3$ and…
Let $\Lambda$ be the set of partitions of length $\geq 0$. We introduce an $\mathbb{N}$-graded algebra $\mathbb{A}_q^d(\Lambda)$ associated to $\Lambda$, which can be viewed as a quantization of the algebra of partitions defined by Reineke.…
The "fundamental theorem" for algebraic $K$-theory expresses the $K$-groups of a Laurent polynomial ring $L[t,t^{-1}]$ as a direct sum of two copies of the $K$-groups of $L$ (with a degree shift in one copy), and certain "nil" groups of…
