We calculate the homotopy type of $L_1L_{K(2)}S^0$ and $L_{K(1)}L_{K(2)}S^0$ at the prime 2, where $L_{K(n)}$ is localization with respect to Morava $K$-theory and $L_1$ localization with respect to $2$-local $K$ theory. In $L_1L_{K(2)}S^0$…
Using the descent spectral sequence for a Galois extension of ring spectra, we compute the Picard group of the higher real $K$-theory spectra of Hopkins and Miller at height $n=p-1$, for $p$ an odd prime. More generally, we determine the…
If $S$ is a subset of an abelian group $G$, the polychromatic number of $S$ in $G$ is the largest integer $k$ so that there is a $k-$coloring of the elements of $G$ such that every translate of $S$ in $G$ gets all $k$ colors. We determine…
We construct Galois extensions of the T(n)-local sphere, lifting all finite abelian Galois extensions of the K(n)-local sphere. This is achieved by realizing them as higher semiadditive analogues of cyclotomic extensions. Combining this…
We use methods of combinatorial number theory to prove that, for each $n>1$ and any prime $p$, some homotopy group $\pi_i(SU(n))$ contains an element of order $p^{n-1+ord_p([n/p]!)}$, where $ord_p(m)$ denotes the largest integer $\alpha$…
In this paper, we bound the descent filtration of the exotic Picard group $\kappa_n$, for a prime number p>3 and n=p-1. Our method involves a detailed comparison of the Picard spectral sequence, the homotopy fixed point spectral sequence,…
Let $G$ be a $k$ - connected ($k \geq 2$) graph of order $n$. If $\chi(G) \geq n - k$, then $G$ is Hamiltonian or $K_k \vee (K_k^c \cup K_{n - 2k})$ with $n \geq 2 k + 1$, where $\chi(G)$ is the chromatic number of the graph $G$.
We study connected mod p finite A_p-spaces admitting AC_n-space structures with n<p for an odd prime p. Our result shows that if n is greator than (p-1)/2, then the mod p Steenrod algebra acts on the mod p cohomology of such a space in a…
We prove that for any prime $p$ and height $n \ge 1$, the telescopic Picard group $\mathrm{Pic}(\mathrm{Sp}_{Tn})$ contains a subgroup of the form $\mathbb{Z}_p \times \mathbb{Z}/a_p(p^n-1)$, where $a_p = 1$ if $p = 2$ and $a_p = 2$ if $p$…
We show, at the prime 2, that the Picard group of invertible modules over $E_n^{hC_2}$ is cyclic. Here, $E_n$ is the height $n$ Lubin--Tate spectrum and its $C_2$-action is induced from the formal inverse of its associated formal group law.…
We prove a higher chromatic analogue of Snaith's theorem which identifies the K-theory spectrum as the localisation of the suspension spectrum of CP^\infty away from the Bott class; in this result, higher Eilenberg-MacLane spaces play the…
We prove the $K(n)$-local analogue of the Hahn-Wilson conjecture on fp-spectra, which states that the truncated Brown-Peterson spectra generate the category of fp-spectra as a thick subcategory. As a corollary, we deduce the original…
Let $p$ be prime, let $K$ be a non-archimedean local field of characteristic $p$ and let $C_p^3$ denote the elementary abelian group of order $p^3$. We give a complete classification of Hopf orders in the $K$-Hopf algebra $(K[C_p^3])^*$ and…
There is a well-established procedure of assigning a strong homotopy Lie algebra of local observables to a multisymplectic manifold which can be regarded as part of a categorified Poisson structure. For a 2-plectic manifold, the resulting…
We calculate the rational homotopy and the K(1)-local homotopy of the K(2)-local sphere at the prime 3 and level 2. We use this to verify the chromatic splitting conjecture in this case.
For $n\geq 2$ we consider $(n-1)$-connected closed manifolds of dimension at most $(3n-2)$. We prove that away from a finite set of primes, the $p$-local homotopy groups of $M$ are determined by the dimension of the space of indecomposable…
We formulate a version of Hopkins' chromatic splitting conjecture for an arbitrary structured ring spectrum $R$, and prove it whenever $\pi_*R$ is Noetherian. As an application, these results provide a new local-to-global principle in the…
We calculate the mod (p, v_1, v_2) homotopy V(2)_* TC(BP<2>) of the topological cyclic homology of the truncated Brown--Peterson spectrum BP<2>, at all primes p\ge7, and show that it is a finitely generated and free F_p[v_3]-module on 12p+4…
We prove that an algebraic group over a field $k$is affine precisely when its Picard group is torsion, and show that in this case the Picard group is finite when $k$ is perfect, and the product of a finite group of order prime to $p$ and a…
The $k$-coprime graph of order $n$ is the graph with vertex set $\{k, k+1, \ldots, k+n-1\}$ in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if they are coprime. We characterize Hamiltonian $k$-coprime graphs. As a particular case, two…
