The primary goal of this paper is to study Spanier-Whitehead duality in the $K(n)$-local category. One of the key players in the $K(n)$-local category is the Lubin-Tate spectrum $E_n$, whose homotopy groups classify deformations of a formal…
Let G:=SO(n,1)^\circ and \Gamma be a geometrically finite Zariski dense subgroup with critical exponent delta bigger than (n-1)/2. Under a spectral gap hypothesis on L^2(\Gamma \ G), which is always satisfied for delta>(n-1)/2 for n=2,3 and…
To a "stable homotopy theory" (a presentable, symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category), we naturally associate a category of finite \'etale algebra objects and, using Grothendieck's categorical machine, a profinite group that we call…
This expository paper introduces several ideas in chromatic homotopy theory around Morava's extraordinary E-theories. In particular, we construct various moduli problems closely related to Lubin-Tate deformation theory and study their…
Let $M$ be a four-holed sphere and $\Gamma$ the mapping class group of $M$ fixing $\partial M$. The group $\Gamma$ acts on the space ${\mathcal M}_{\mathcal B}(SU(2))$ of SU(2)-gauge equivalence classes of flat SU(2)-connections on $M$ with…
In this work we study an elliptic solid-on-solid model with domain-wall boundaries having the elliptic quantum group $\mathcal{E}_{p, \gamma}[\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}_2}]$ as its underlying symmetry algebra. We elaborate on results previously…
We study the relationship between the transchromatic localizations of Morava $E$-theory, $L_{K(n-1)}E_n$, and formal groups. In particular, we show that the coefficient ring $\pi_0L_{K(n-1)}E_n$ has a modular interpretation, representing…
Let $K$ be an algebraic function field with constant field ${\mathbb F}_q$. Fix a place $\infty$ of $K$ of degree $\delta$ and let $A$ be the ring of elements of $K$ that are integral outside $\infty$. We give an explicit description of the…
Using a Milnor-Moore argument we show that, $K(2)$-locally at the prime $2$, the spectra $MU\langle 6\rangle$ and $MString$ split as direct sums of Morava $E$-theories after tensoring with a finite Galois extension of the sphere called…
In this paper we study quasi-categories of comodules over coalgebras in a stable homotopy theory. We show that the quasi-category of comodules over the coalgebra associated to a Landweber exact S-algebra depends only on the height of the…
Let $E_n$ be Morava $E$-theory and let $G \subset G_n$ be a finite subgroup of $G_n$, the extended Morava stabilizer group. Let $E_{n}^{tG}$ be the Tate spectrum, defined as the cofiber of the norm map $N:(E_n)_{hG} \to E_n^{hG}$. We use…
Oka and the second author considered the cohomology of the second Morava stabilizer algebra to study nontriviality of the products of beta elements of the stable homotopy groups of spheres. In this paper, we use the cohomology of the third…
Let $G$ be a simple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $\Gamma$ be a finite group acting on $G$. We classify and compute the local types of $(\Gamma, G)$-bundles on a smooth projective $\Gamma$-curve in terms of the…
We say that a collection Gamma of geodesics in the hyperbolic plane H^2 is a modular pattern if Gamma is invariant under the modular group PSL_2(Z), if there are only finitely many PSL_2(Z)-equivalence classes of geodesics in Gamma, and if…
The pure braid group \Gamma of a quadruply-punctured Riemann sphere acts on the SL(2,C)-moduli M of the representation variety of such sphere. The points in M are classified into \Gamma-orbits. We show that, in this case, the monodromy…
Let n \geq 1 and let p be any prime. Also, let E_n be the Lubin-Tate spectrum, G_n the extended Morava stabilizer group, and K(n) the nth Morava K-theory spectrum. Then work of Devinatz and Hopkins and some results due to Behrens and the…
We prove a new kind of stabilisation result, "secondary homological stability", for the homology of mapping class groups of orientable surfaces with one boundary component. These results are obtained by constructing CW approximations to the…
In this paper, we establish periodicity results for higher real $K$-theories at all heights and for all finite subgroups of the Morava stabilizer group at the prime 2. We further analyze the $RO(G)$-periodicity lattice of the height-$h$…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve. When the symmetric group $\Sigma_{g+1}$ of order $(g+1)!$ acts on $E^{g+1}$ in the natural way, the subgroup $E_0^{g+1}$, consisting of those $(g+1)$-tuples whose coordinates sum to zero, is stable under the…
