We note that a recent result of the second author yields upper bounds for odd-primary homotopy exponents of compact simple Lie groups which are often quite close to the lower bounds obtained from v_1-periodic homotopy theory.
Bousfield recently gave a formula for the odd-primary v1-periodic homotopy groups of a finite H-space in terms of its K-theory and Adams operations. We apply Bousfield's theorem to give explicit determinations of the v1-periodic homotopy…
Let E(n) and T(m) for nonnegative integers n and m denote the Johnson-Wilson and the Ravenel spectra, respectively. Given a spectrum whose E(n)_*-homology is E(n)_*(T(m))/(v_1,...,v_{n-1}), then each homotopy group of it estimates the order…
The Dwyer-Wilkerson space DI(4) is the only exotic 2-compact group. We compute its v1-periodic homotopy groups.
We compute the $v_1$-periodic $\mathbb{R}$-motivic stable homotopy groups. The main tool is the effective slice spectral sequence. Along the way, we also analyze $\mathbb{C}$-motivic and $\eta$-periodic $v_1$-periodic homotopy from the same…
For an odd quadratic space $V$ of Witt index $\geq 3$ over a commutative ring with pseudoinvolution, we classify the subgroups of the odd unitary group $U(V)$ that are normalized by the elementary subgroup $EU_{(e_1,e_{-1})}(V)$ defined by…
The chromatic spectral sequence is introduced in \cite{mrw} to compute the $E_2$-term of the \ANSS\ for computing the stable homotopy groups of spheres. The $E_1$-term $E_1^{s,t}(k)$ of the spectral sequence is an Ext group of…
We determine the v1-periodic homotopy groups of all irreducible p-compact groups (BX,X). In the most difficult, modular, cases, we follow a direct path from their associated invariant polynomials to these homotopy groups. We show that, if p…
Using the descent spectral sequence for a Galois extension of ring spectra, we compute the Picard group of the higher real $K$-theory spectra of Hopkins and Miller at height $n=p-1$, for $p$ an odd prime. More generally, we determine the…
We describe some periodic structure in the cohomology of the moduli stack of 1-dimensional formal group laws, also known as the $E_2$-page of the classical Adams--Novikov spectral sequence. This structure is distinct from the familiar…
The $p$-local homotopy types of gauge groups of principal $G$-bundles over $S^4$ are classified when $G$ is a compact connected exceptional Lie group without $p$-torsion in homology except for $(G,p)=(\mathrm{E}_7,5)$.
The Bousfield-Kan (or unstable Adams) spectral sequence can be constructed for various homology theories such as Brown-Peterson homology theory BP, Johnson-Wilson theory $E(n)$, or Morava $E$-theory $E_n$. For nice spaces the $E_2$-term is…
We consider 2-local geometries and other subgroup complexes for sporadic simple groups. For six groups, the fixed point set of a noncentral involution is shown to be equivariantly homotopy equivalent to a standard geometry for the component…
We generate by computer a basis of invariants for the fundamental representations of the exceptional Lie groups E(6) and E(7), up to degree 18. We discuss the relevance of this calculation for the study of supersymmetric gauge theories, and…
We give a calculation of Picard groups of K(2)-local invertible spectra and of E(2)-local invertible spectra, both at the prime 3. The main contribution of this paper is to calculation the subgroup of invertible spectra with the same Morava…
Let $A_1$ be any spectrum in a class of finite spectra whose mod $2$ cohomology is isomorphic to a free module of rank one over the subalgebra $\mathcal{A}(1)$ of the Steenrod algebra. Let $E_{C}$ be the second Morava-$E$ theory associated…
The spectrum of a finite group is the set of its elements orders. Groups are said to be isospectral if their spectra coincide. For every finite simple exceptional group $L=E_7(q)$, we prove that each finite group isospectral to $L$ is…
We study the motivic Adams-Novikov spectral sequence at an odd prime $l$ over the base fields $\mathbb{C}$ and $\mathbb{R}$. This spectral sequence converges to the stable motivic homotopy groups of the $l$-completed motivic sphere…
The James fibrations give rise to the geometric EHP sequences of homotopy groups of spheres. Using techniques from the Lambda algebra, \cite{BCKQRS66} shows that there are similar long exact sequences of Ext groups defining the $E_{2}-$page…
In this paper we use the approach introduced in an earlier paper by Goerss, Henn, Mahowald and Rezk in order to analyze the homotopy groups of L_{K(2)}V(0), the mod-3 Moore spectrum V(0) localized with respect to Morava K-theory K(2). These…
