On Hopkins’ Picard Groups for the Prime 3 and Chromatic Level 2 Paul Goerss, Hans-werner Henn, Mark Mahowald and Charles Rezk

We give a calculation of Picard groups Pic2 of K(2)-local invertible spectra and Pic(L2) of E(2)-local invertible spectra, both at the prime 3. The main contribution of this paper is to calculation the subgroup κ2 of invertible spectra X with (E2)∗X ∼= (E2)∗S as continuous modules over the Morava stabilizer group G2.

Reader-Response Theory and Criticism | The Johns Hopkins Guide to Literary Theory and Criticism

Reader-response criticism maintains that the interpretive activities of readers, rather than the author’s intention or the text’s structure, explain a text’s significance and aesthetic value. Biographical accounts of how a writer responds to his or her critics initiated this kind of criticism. That is, since a writer may respond to commentary provided by friends, reviewers, or critics, biograph...

Algebraic K-theory and Abstract Homotopy Theory

We decompose the K-theory space of a Waldhausen category in terms of its Dwyer-Kan simplicial localization. This leads to a criterion for functors to induce equivalences of K-theory spectra that generalizes and explains many of the criteria appearing in the literature. We show that under mild hypotheses, a weakly exact functor that induces an equivalence of homotopy categories induces an equiva...
