The question of when the Kervaire invariant is nontrivial was the only question left unresolved by Kervaire and Milnor in their 1963 study of the relationship between groups of homotopy spheres and stable homotopy groups. In 2009, Mike…
We develop a new method in the computation of equivariant homotopy, which is based on the splitting of cofiber sequences associated to universal spaces in the category of equivariant spectra. In particular, we use this method to compute the…
We prove that the element $h_6^2$ is a permanent cycle in the Adams spectral sequence. As a result, we establish the existence of smooth framed manifolds with Kervaire invariant one in dimension 126, thereby resolving the final case of the…
We use geometric fixed points to describe the homotopy theory of genuine equivariant commutative ring spectra after inverting the group order. The main innovation is the use of the extra structure provided by the Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel norms…
Klein and Williams developed an obstruction theory for the homotopical equivariant fixed point problem, which asks whether an equivariant map can be deformed, through an equivariant homotopy, into another map with no fixed points…
In this paper, for a finite group, we discuss a method for calculating equivariant homology with constant coefficients. We apply it to completely calculate the geometric fixed points of the equivariant spectrum representing equivariant…
We use the $C_2$-equivariant Adams spectral sequence to compute part of the $C_2$-equivariant stable homotopy groups $\pi^{C_2}_{n,n}$. This allows us to recover results of Bredon and Landweber on the image of the geometric fixed-points map…
Let $\operatorname{E}_2$ be the Morava E-theory of height 2 at the prime 2. In this paper, we compute the homotopy groups of $\operatorname{E}_2^{hC_6} \wedge \mathbb{R}P^2$ and $\operatorname{E}_2^{hC_6} \wedge \mathbb{R}P^2 \wedge…
In this paper, we compute the BP-cohomology of complex projective Stiefel manifolds. The method involves the homotopy fixed point spectral sequence, and works for complex oriented cohomology theories. We also use these calculations and…
In filtration 1 of the Adams spectral sequence, using secondary cohomology operations, Adams computed the differentials on the classes $h_j$, resolving the Hopf invariant one problem. In Adams filtration 2, using equivariant and chromatic…
Extending our method for investigating Real cobordism (which was recently used by Hill, Hopkins and Ravenel in their solution of the Kervaire invariant 1 problem), we investigate the $RO(G)$-graded homotopy groups of a (non-complete)…
This is the second in a series of papers. Here we develop here an intersection theory for manifolds equipped with an action of a finite group. As in our previous paper, our approach will be homotopy theoretic, enabling us to circumvent the…
This paper is a continuation of the version I of the same title, which intends to clarify and expand the results in the last chapter of `the green book' by the second author. In particular, we give the stable homotopy groups of $p$-local…
In this paper, we determined the $2,3$-components of the homotopy groups $\pi _{r+k}(\Sigma ^{k}\mathbb{H}P^{2})$ for all $ 7\leq r\leq15$ and all $\;k\geq0$, especially for the unstable ones. And we gave the applications, including the…
A geometric approach to the stable homotopy groups of spheres is developed in this paper, based on the Pontryagin-Thom construction. The task of this approach is to obtain an alternative proof of the Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel theorem [H-H-R] on…
The Kervaire Problem is an unsolved problem in Stable Homotopy Theory. The first interesting example is in dimension $30$. There exists a closed stably-parallelizable manifold $\tilde{M}^{30}$ with Arf-Kervaire invariant 1. It is unknown,…
This paper contains a complete computation of the homotopy ring of the spectrum of topological modular forms constructed by Hopkins and Miller. The computation is done away from 6, and at the (interesting) primes 2 and 3 separately, and in…
This paper studies the foundations of the geometric fixed point functor in multiplicative equivariant stable homotopy theory. We introduce a new class of equivariant orthogonal spectra called generalized orbit desuspension spectra and…
Recently we introduced a class $\widetilde{\mathcal{Z}}$ of $2$-local finite spectra and showed that all spectra $Z\in \widetilde{\mathcal{Z}}$ admit a $v_2$-self-map of periodicity $1$. The aim of this article is to compute the…
A spectral sequence is defined which converges to the \v{C}ech cohomology of the Euclidean hull of a tiling of the plane with Euclidean finite local complexity. The terms of the second page are determined by the so-called ePE homology and…
