Hopkins and Mahowald gave a simple description of the mod $p$ Eilenberg Mac Lane spectrum $\mathbb{F}_p$ as the free $\mathbb{E}_2$-algebra with an equivalence of $p$ and $0$. We show for each faithful $2$-dimensional representation…
We explore the $C_2$-equivariant spectra $Tmf_1(3)$ and $TMF_1(3)$. In particular, we compute their $C_2$-equivariant Picard groups and the $C_2$-equivariant Anderson dual of $Tmf_1(3)$. This implies corresponding results for the fixed…
Building up on work of Epstein, May and Drury, we define and investigate the mod $p$ Steenrod operations on the de Rham cohomology of smooth algebraic stacks over a field of characteristic $p>0$. We then compute the action of the operations…
Let $F$ be any field of characteristic $p$. It is well-known that there are exactly $p$ inequivalent indecomposable representations $V_1,V_2,...,V_p$ of $C_p$ defined over $F$. Thus if $V$ is any finite dimensional $C_p$-representation…
We construct a map from the suspension $G$-spectrum $\Sigma_G^\infty M$ of a smooth compact $G$-manifold to the equivariant $A$-theory spectrum $A_G(M)$, and we show that its fiber is, on fixed points, a wedge of stable $h$-cobordism…
We show that the full matrix algebra Mat_p(C) is a U-module algebra for U = U_q sl(2), a 2p^3-dimensional quantum sl(2) group at the 2p-th root of unity. Mat_p(C) decomposes into a direct sum of projective U-modules P^+_n with all odd n,…
We use modular invariant theory to establish a complete set of relations of the mod $p$ homology of $\{QS^k\}_{k\geq0}$, for $p$ odd, as a ring object in the category of coalgebras (also known as a coalgebraic ring or a Hopf ring). We also…
Spectral Mackey functors are homotopy-coherent versions of ordinary Mackey functors as defined by Dress. We show that they can be described as excisive functors on a suitable infinity-category, and we use this to show that universal…
We introduce the $C_{p^n}$-Mahowald invariant: a relation $\pi_\star S_{C_{p^{n-1}}} \rightharpoonup \pi_\ast S$ between the equivariant and classical stable stems which reduces to the classical Mahowald invariant when $n=1$. We compute the…
Let $C_n$ denote a cyclic group of order $n$. In this paper we investigate modules and chain complexes over the constant integral Mackey functor $\underline{\mathbb{Z}}$ and perform some related homological calculations. Along the way we…
We study the mod $p$ equivariant quantum cohomology of conical symplectic resolutions. Using symplectic genus zero enumerative geometry, Fukaya and Wilkins defined operations on mod $p$ quantum cohomology deforming the classical Steenrod…
We study the structure of the $RO(G)$-graded homotopy Mackey functors of any Eilenberg-MacLane spectrum $H\underline{M}$ for $G$ a cyclic $p$-group. When $\underline{R}$ is a Green functor, we define orientation classes $u_V$ for…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p$. We construct a new inflation functor for cohomological Mackey functors for finite groups over $k$. Using this inflation functor, we give an explicit presentation of the graded algebra of self…
The $C_2$-spectrum of Atiyah's Real $K$-theory is denoted by $\mathbf{KR}$ and the $C_2$-spectrum of topological modular forms of level structure $\Gamma_1(3)$ by $\mathbf{TMF}_1(3)$. In this short note we compute the $C_2$-equivariant…
The paper gives a new proof that the model categories of stable modules for the rings Z/(p^2) and (Z/p)[\epsilon]/(\epsilon^2) are not Quillen equivalent. The proof uses homotopy endomorphism ring spectra. Our considerations lead to an…
We give a complete calculation of the cobordism ring of stably almost complex $C_p$-manifolds in terms of generators and relations. We also compare these generators with the geometrically-defined generators obtained by Kosniowski.
Working over the prime field F_p, the structure of the indecomposables Q^* for the action of the algebra of Steenrod reduced powers A(p) on the symmetric power functors S^* is studied by exploiting the theory of strict polynomial functors.…
We extend Ravenel-Wilson Hopf ring techniques to $C_2$-equivariant homotopy theory. Our main application and motivation is a computation of the $RO(C_2)$-graded homology of $C_2$-equivariant Eilenberg-MacLane spaces. The result we obtain…
We filter the equivariant Eilenberg Maclane spectrum $H\underline{\mathbb{F}}_p$ using the mod $p$ symmetric powers of the equivariant sphere spectrum, $\mathrm{Sp}_{\mathbb{Z}/p}^{\infty}(\Sigma^{\infty G}S^0)$. When $G$ is a $p$-group, we…
In this very short note, we expand the Hu-Kriz computation of the $G$-equivariant Borel dual Steenrod algebra in characteristic $2$, from the group $G=C_2$ to all power-$2$ cyclic groups $G=C_{2^n}$.
