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…
We compute the algebraic Picard group of the category of $K(n)$-local spectra, for all heights $n$ and all primes $p$. In particular, we show that it is always finitely generated over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ and, whenever $n \geq 2$, is of rank $2$,…
Using Patchkoria--Pstr\k{a}gowski's version of Franke's algebraicity theorem, we prove that the category of $K_p(n)$-local spectra is exotically equivalent to the category of derived $I_n$-complete periodic comodules over the Adams Hopf…
We show that if $E$ is a $p$-local Landweber exact homology theory of height $n$ and $p > n^2+n+1$, then there exists an equivalence $h \mathcal{S}p_{E} \simeq h\mathcal{D}(E_{*}E)$ between homotopy categories of $E$-local spectra and…
Following a suggestion of Hovey and Strickland, we study the category of $K(k) \vee K(k+1) \vee \cdots \vee K(n)$-local spectra. When $k = 0$, this is equivalent to the category of $E(n)$-local spectra, while for $k = n$, this is the…
We give a calculation of Picard groups of K(2)-local invertible spectra and of E(2)-local invertible spectra, both at the prime 3. The main contribution of this paper is to calculation the subgroup of invertible spectra with the same Morava…
Inspired by the Ax--Kochen isomorphism theorem, we develop a notion of categorical ultraproducts to capture the generic behavior of an infinite collection of mathematical objects. We employ this theory to give an asymptotic solution to the…
We calculate the group $\kappa_2$ of exotic elements in the $K(2)$-local Picard group at the prime $2$ and find it is a group of order $2^9$ isomorphic to $(\mathbb{Z}/8)^2 \times (\mathbb{Z}/2)^3$. In order to do this we must define and…
We introduce characteristics into chromatic homotopy theory. This parallels the prime characteristics in number theory as well as in our earlier work on structured ring spectra and unoriented bordism theory. Here, the K(n)-local…
In previous work, we used an $\infty$-categorical version of ultraproducts to show that, for a fixed height $n$, the symmetric monoidal $\infty$-categories of $E_{n,p}$-local spectra are asymptotically algebraic in the prime $p$. In this…
In their work on the period map and the dualizing sheaf for Lubin-Tate space, Gross and the second author wrote down an equivalence between the Spanier-Whitehead and Brown-Comenetz duals of certain type $n$-complexes in the $K(n)$-local…
Recently it was shown that the category of cocommutative Hopf algebras over an arbitrary field $\Bbbk$ is semi-abelian. We extend this result to the category of cocommutative color Hopf algebras, i.e. of cocommutative Hopf monoids in the…
We show that the strongest form of Hopkins' chromatic splitting conjecture, as stated by Hovey, cannot hold at chromatic level n=2 at the prime p=2. More precisely, for V(0) the mod 2 Moore spectrum, we prove that the kth homotopy group of…
Ravenel proved the remarkable fact that the $K$-theoretic localization $L_K S^0$ of the sphere spectrum has $\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}$ as homotopy group in dimension -2. Mike Hopkins' chromatic splitting conjecture implies more generally that…
Let $\mathcal L_n$ for a positive integer $n$ denote the stable homotopy category of $v_n^{-1}BP$-local spectra at a prime number $p$. Then, M.~Hopkins defines the Picard group of $\mathcal L_n$ as a collection of isomorphism classes of…
We calculate the homotopy type of the Brown-Comenetz dual $I_2$ of the K(2)-local sphere at the prime 3 and show that there is a twisting by a non-trivial element $P$ in the exotic part of the Picard group. We give a complete…
We discuss the monoidal structure on Franke's algebraic model for the $K_{(p)}$-local stable homotopy category at odd primes and show that its Picard group is isomorphic to the integers.
In this paper, we study the exotic $K(h)$-local Picard groups $\kappa_h$ when $2p-1=h^2$ and the homological Chromatic Vanishing Conjecture when $p-1$ does not divide $h$. The main idea is to use the Gross-Hopkins duality to relate both…
We show that there are $k$ simple graphs whose Kronecker covers are isomorphic to the bipartite Kneser graph $H(n,k)$, and that their chromatic numbers coincide with $\chi(K(n,k)) = n - 2k + 2$. We also determine the automorphism groups of…
We give a new and simpler proof of a result of Hopkins and Gross relating Brown-Comenetz duality to Spanier-Whitehead duality in the K(n)-local stable homotopy category.
