The stack of formal groups in stable homotopy theory
نویسنده
چکیده
We construct the algebraic stack of formal groups and use it to provide a new perspective onto a recent result of M. Hovey and N. Strickland on comodule categories for Landweber exact algebras. This leads to a geometric understanding of their results as well as to a generalisation.

Quasi-coherent sheaves on the Moduli Stack of Formal Groups
For years I have been echoing my betters, especially Mike Hopkins, and telling anyone who would listen that the chromatic picture of stable homotopy theory is dictated and controlled by the geometry of the moduli stack Mfg of smooth, one-dimensional formal groups. Specifically, I would say that the height filtration of Mfg dictates a canonical and natural decomposition of a quasi-coherent sheaf...
متن کامل(Pre-)sheaves of Ring Spectra over the Moduli Stack of Formal Group Laws∗
In the first part of this article, I will state a realization problem for diagrams of structured ring spectra, and in the second, I will discuss the moduli space which parametrizes the problem. While some of what I say is quite general, the ring spectra I have in mind will arise from the chromatic point of view, which uses the geometry of formal groups to organize stable homotopy theory. Thus, ...
متن کاملA resolution of the K ( 2 ) - local sphere at the prime 3
We develop a framework for displaying the stable homotopy theory of the sphere, at least after localization at the second Morava K-theory K(2). At the prime 3, we write the spectrum LK(2)S as the inverse limit of a tower of fibrations with four layers. The successive fibers are of the form EhF 2 where F is a finite subgroup of the Morava stabilizer group and E2 is the second Morava or Lubin-Tat...
متن کاملA new family in the stable homotopy groups of spheres
Let $p$ be a prime number greater than three. In this paper, we prove the existence of a new family of homotopy elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres $pi_{ast}(S)$ which is represented by $h_nh_mtilde{beta}_{s+2}in {rm Ext}_A^{s+4, q[p^n+p^m+(s+2)p+(s+1)]+s}(mathbb{Z}_p,mathbb{Z}_p)$ up to nonzero scalar in the Adams spectral sequence, where $ngeq m+2>5$, $0leq sExt}_A^{s+2,q[(s+2)p...
متن کاملThe Rigid Analytic Period Mapping, Lubin-tate Space, and Stable Homotopy Theory
The geometry of the Lubin-Tate space of deformations of a formal group is studied via an étale, rigid analytic map from the deformation space to projective space. This leads to a simple description of the equivariant canonical bundle of the deformation space which, in turn, yields a formula for the dualizing complex in stable homotopy theory. Introduction Ever since Quillen [22, 1 ] discovered ...
