There is a natural action of a kind of Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_n$ on the $n$th Morava $E$-theory of spaces. We construct Hecke operators in an amalgamated cohomology theory of the $n$th and the $(n+1)$st Morava $E$-theories. These…
Associated to any manifold equipped with a closed form of degree >1 is an `L-infinity algebra of observables' which acts as a higher/homotopy analog of the Poisson algebra of functions on a symplectic manifold. In order to study Lie group…
We solve affirmatively the homotopy limit problem for $K$-theory over fields of finite virtual cohomological dimension. Our solution employs the motivic slice filtration and the first motivic Hopf map.
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…
We describe some periodic structure in the cohomology of the moduli stack of 1-dimensional formal group laws, also known as the $E_2$-page of the classical Adams--Novikov spectral sequence. This structure is distinct from the familiar…
In this paper, we study the cohomology of the Morava stabilizer algebra $S(3)$. As an application, we show that for $p \geq 7$, if $s\not \equiv 0, \pm 1 \,\, mod \,p $, $n\not \equiv 1 \,\, mod\, 3$, $n>1$, then $\zeta_n\gamma_s$ is a…
For any finite-dimensional Hopf algebra $A$ there exists a natural associative algebra homomorphism $D(A) \to H(A)$ between its Drinfeld double $D(A)$ and its Heisenberg double $H(A)$. We construct this homomorphism using a pair of…
We give a new solution of the "homotopy periods" problem, as highlighted by Sullivan, which places explicit geometrically meaningful formulae first dating back to Whitehead in the context of Quillen's formalism for rational homotopy theory…
We describe the first stem of the stable homotopy groups of spheres by using some Puppe sequences, Thom complexes, K-Theory and Adams operations following the ideas of J. Frank Adams. We also touch upon the second and the third stems in…
This paper continues the author's program to investigate the question of when a homotopy of 2-cocycles $\Omega = \{\omega_t\}_{t \in [0,1]}$ on a locally compact Hausdorff groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ induces an isomorphism of the $K$-theory…
We compute the 1-line of stable homotopy groups of motivic spheres over fields of characteristic not two in terms of hermitian and Milnor K-groups. This is achieved by solving questions about convergence and differentials in the slice…
We obtain bounds for the spectrum and for the total width of the spectral gaps for Jacobi matrices on $\ell^2(\Z)$ of the form $(H\psi)_n= a_{n-1}\psi_{n-1}+b_n\psi_n+a_n\psi_{n+1}$, where $a_n=a_{n+q}$ and $b_n=b_{n+q}$ are periodic…
(This is an updated version; following an idea of Voevodsky, we have strengthened our results so all of them apply to one form of motivic homotopy theory). We give two general constructions for the passage from unstable to stable homotopy…
The chromatic spectral sequence is introduced in \cite{mrw} to compute the $E_2$-term of the \ANSS\ for computing the stable homotopy groups of spheres. The $E_1$-term $E_1^{s,t}(k)$ of the spectral sequence is an Ext group of…
Let $K(\mathbb{F}_q)$ be the algebraic $K$-theory spectrum of the finite field with $q$ elements and let $p \geq 5$ be a prime number coprime to $q$. In this paper we study the mod $p$ and $v_1$ topological Hochschild homology of…
We define, in $C_p$-equivariant homotopy theory for $p>2$, a notion of $\mu_p$-orientation analogous to a $C_2$-equivariant Real orientation. The definition hinges on a $C_p$-space $\mathbb{CP}^{\infty}_{\mu_p}$, which we prove to be…
We import into homotopy theory the algebro-geometric construction of the cotangent space of a geometric point on a scheme. Specializing to the category of spectra local to a Morava $K$-theory of height $d$, we show that this can be used to…
Anick proved that every q-mild Hopf algebra up to homotopy is isomorphic to a primitively-generated chain Hopf algebra. We provide a new proof, that involves extensive use of the Bockstein spectral sequence.
We discuss what it means for a symmetric monoidal category to be a module over a commutative semiring category. Each of the categories of (1) cartesian monoidal categories, (2) semiadditive categories, and (3) connective spectra can be…
We study a spectral sequence that computes the (mod 2) S^1-equivariant homology of the free loop space LM of a manifold M (the "string homology" of M). Using it and knowledge of the string topology operations on the homology of LM, we…
