We show that a large number of Thom spectra, i.e. colimits of morphisms $BG\to BGL_1(\mathbb{S})$, can be obtained as iterated Thom spectra, i.e. colimits of morphisms $BG\to BGL_1(Mf)$ for some Thom spectrum $Mf$. This leads to a number of…
We show that Lubin-Tate spectra at the prime $2$ are Real oriented and Real Landweber exact. The proof is by application of the Goerss-Hopkins-Miller theorem to algebras with involution. For each height $n$, we compute the entire homotopy…
Our results are of three types. First we describe a general procedure of adjoining polynomial variables to $A_\infty$-ring spectra whose coefficient rings satisfy certain restrictions.A host of examples of such spectra is provided by…
We introduce the notion of a strongly homotopy-comultiplicative resolution of a module coalgebra over a chain Hopf algebra, which we apply to proving a comultiplicative enrichment of a well-known theorem of Moore concerning the homology of…
The paper is devoted to study the space of multiplicative maps from the Eilenberg-MacLane spectrum $H\Z$ to an arbitrary ring spectrum $R$. We try to generalize the approach of Schwede from "Formal groups and stable homotopy of commutative…
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…
This is a survey paper on cohomology theories for $A_\infty$ and $E_\infty$ ring spectra. Different constructions and main properties of topological Andr\'e-Quillen cohomology and of topological derivations are described. We give sample…
In this paper, we study genuine equivariant factorization homology and its interaction with equivariant Thom spectra, which we construct using the language of parametrized higher category theory. We describe the genuine equivariant…
We develop a rigidity criterion to show that in simplicial model categories with a compatible symmetric monoidal structure, operad structures can be automatically lifted along certain maps. This is applied to obtain an unpublished result of…
Let $A$ be a regular ring over a field $k$, with $1/2\in k$ and dimension $d$. We discuss the Homotopy Conjecture of Madhav V. Nori, in the complete intersection case (meaning when the projective module in question if free, of rank at least…
We uncover a somewhat surprising connection between spaces of multiplicative maps between $A_\infty$-ring spectra and topological Hochschild cohomology. As a consequence we show that such spaces become infinite loop spaces after looping…
Given a diagram of rings, one may consider the category of modules over them. We are interested in the homotopy theory of categories of this type: given a suitable diagram of model categories M(s) (as s runs through the diagram), we…
Given a compact Lie group $G$ and a commutative orthogonal ring spectrum $R$ such that $R[G]_* = \pi_*(R \wedge G_+)$ is finitely generated and projective over $\pi_*(R)$, we construct a multiplicative $G$-Tate spectral sequence for each…
Using the Bockstein spectral sequence developed previously by the authors, we compute the ring ER(n)^*(BO(q)) explicitly. We then use this calculation to show that the ring spectrum MO[2^{n+1}] is ER(n)-orientable (but not…
Recently, Hausmann defined global group laws and used them to prove that $MU^G_*$ is the $G$-equivariant Lazard ring, for $G$ a compact abelian Lie group. On the other hand, Hu and Kriz showed that the restriction map induces an isomorphism…
We describe a structure on a commutative ring (pre)cyclotomic spectrum $R$ that gives rise to a (pre)cyclotomic structure on topological Hochschild homology ($THH$) relative to its underlying commutative ring spectrum. This lets us…
We prove that within a natural class of E_3-algebras, the graded Tor group induced by a span of E_3-algebra maps carries a graded algebra structure generalizing the classical structure when the algebras are genuine commutative differential…
We define quasicategories of E_n-structured coalgebras, bialagebras and comodules. We show that: n-fold loop spaces, suspension spectra thereof, descent data for maps of E_n-ring spectra, descent corings of morphisms of E_n-ring spectra and…
We establish a novel approach to computing $G$-equivariant cohomology for a finite group $G$, and demonstrate it in the case that $G = C_{p^n}$. For any commutative ring spectrum $R$, we prove a symmetric monoidal reconstruction theorem for…
Given a height $\leq 2$ Landweber exact $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-ring $E$ whose homotopy is concentrated in even degrees, we show that any complex orientation of $E$ which satisfies the Ando criterion admits a unique lift to an…
