The classical Mahowald invariant is a method for producing nonzero classes in the stable homotopy groups of spheres from classes in lower stems. We study the Mahowald invariant in the setting of motivic stable homotopy theory over…
We discover a host of infinite periodic families in the 2-primary stable homotopy groups of spheres. We also confirm the existence of many families predicted by Hopkins--Mahowald. These families appear in nineteen different congruence…
We determine the image of the 2-primary tmf-Hurewicz homomorphism, where tmf is the spectrum of topological modular forms. We do this by lifting elements of tmf_* to the homotopy groups of the generalized Moore spectrum M(8,v_1^8) using a…
We use the orientation underlying the Hirzebruch genus of level three to map the beta family at the prime p=2 into the ring of divided congruences. This procedure, which may be thought of as the elliptic greek letter beta construction,…
In the stable homotopy groups $\pi_{q(p^n+p^m+1)-3}(S)$ of the sphere spectrum $S$ localized at the prime $p$ greater than three, J. Lin constructed an essential family $\xi_{m,n}$ for $n \geq m + 2 >5$. In this paper, the authors show that…
Let $\beta_1$ be the first $3$-torsion class in the stable homotopy groups of spheres in even degree. Toda showed that $\beta_1^5 \neq 0$, whilst $\beta_1^6 = 0$. Shimomura generalised this to the $144$-periodic family generated by…
The f-invariant is an injective homomorphism from the 2-line of the Adams-Novikov spectral sequence to a group which is closely related to divided congruences of elliptic modular forms. We compute the f-invariant for two infinite families…
We produce five 192-periodic infinite families of simple $\eta$-torsion elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres with trivial image under the tmf-Hurewicz homomorphism. We also establish that several other 192-periodic families in…
We identify seven new $192$-periodic infinite families of elements in the $2$-primary stable homotopy groups of spheres. Although their Hurewicz image is trivial for topological modular forms, they remain nontrivial after $\mathrm{T}(2)$-…
The $2$-primary Hopf invariant $1$ elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres form the most accessible family of elements. In this paper we explore some properties of the $\mathcal{E}_\infty$ ring spectra obtained from certain…
We prove that a type II$_1$ factor $M$ can have at most one Cartan subalgebra $A$ satisfying a combination of rigidity and compact approximation properties. We use this result to show that within the class $\Cal H \Cal T$ of factors $M$…
It is conjectured that a class of n-fold integral transformations {I(alpha)|alpha in {C}} forms a mutually commutative family, namely, we have I(alpha) I(beta)=I(beta) I(alpha) for all alpha, beta in {C}. The commutativity of I(alpha) for…
In this paper we constructs a new nontrivial family in the stable homotopy groups of spheres $\pi_{p^nq+2pq+q-3}S$ which is of order $p$ and is represented by $k_0h_{n} \in Ext_A^{3,p^nq+2pq+q}(\mathbb{Z}_p,\mathbb{Z}_p)$ in the Adams…
Let E be a ring spectrum for which the E-Adams spectral sequence converges. We define a variant of Mahowald's root invariant called the `filtered root invariant' which takes values in the E_1 term of the E-Adams spectral sequence. The main…
We review the definition of Mahowald invariants and discuss the computational method of Mark Brehens introduced in [arXiv:math/0507182]. Then we examine the relationship between the algebraic Mahowald invariants and the \( E \)-filtered…
We study modular approximations Q(l), l = 3,5, of the K(2)-local sphere at the prime 2 that arise from l-power degree isogenies of elliptic curves. We develop Hopf algebroid level tools for working with Q(l) and record Hill, Hopkins, and…
We study an integrable vertex model with a periodic boundary condition associated with U_q(A_n^{(1)}) at the crystallizing point q=0. It is an (n+1)-state cellular automaton describing the factorized scattering of solitons. The dynamics…
In this paper, we investigate inhomogeneous and simultaneous Diophantine approximation in beta dynamical systems. For $\beta>1$ let $T_{\beta}$ be the $\beta$-transformation on $[0,1]$. We determine the Lebesgue measure and Hausdorff…
We study the higher spin algebras of two-dimensional conformal field theory from the perspective of quantum integrability. Starting from Maulik-Okounkov instanton R-matrix and applying the procedure of algebraic Bethe ansatz, we obtain…
We show that $v_2^9$ is a permanent cycle in the 3-primary Adams-Novikov spectral sequence computing $\pi_*(S/(3,v_1^8))$, and use this to conclude that the families $\beta_{9t+3/i}$ for $i=1,2$, $\beta_{9t+6/i}$ for $i=1,2,3$,…
