A 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 کاملDetection of a nontrivial element in the stable homotopy groups of spheres
Let $p$ be a prime with $pgeq 7$ and $q=2(p-1)$. In this paper we prove the existence of a nontrivial product of filtration $s+4$ in the stable homotopy groups of spheres. This nontrivial product is shown to be represented up to a nonzero scalar by the product element $widetilde{gamma}_{s}b_{n-1}g_{0}in {Ext}_{mathcal{A}}^{s+4,(p^n+sp^2+sp+s)q+s-3}(mathbb{Z}/p,mathbb{Z}/p)$ in ...
متن کاملA Novice's Guide to the Ad~ms-novikov Spectral Sequence
Ever since its introduction by J. F. Adams [8] in 1958, the spectral sequence that bears his name has been a source of fascination to homotopy theorists. By glancing at a table of its structure in low dimensions (such have been published in [7], [i0] and [27]; one can also be found in ~2) one sees not only the values of but the structural relations among the corresponding stable homotopy groups...
متن کاملBott’s Periodicity Theorem and Differentials of the Adams Spectral Sequence of Homotopy Groups of Spheres
Bott’s periodicity theorem is applied to calculate higher-order differentials of the Adams spectral sequence of homotopy groups π∗(SO). The resulting formulas are used to find higher-order differentials of the Adams spectral sequence of homotopy groups of spheres. DOI: 10.1134/S0001434608110126
متن کاملTHE BETA ELEMENTS βtp2/r IN THE HOMOTOPY OF SPHERES
In [1], Miller, Ravenel and Wilson defined generalized beta elements in the E2-term of the Adams-Novikov spectral sequence converging to the stable homotopy groups of spheres, and in [5], Oka showed that the beta elements of the form βtp2/r for positive integers t and r survives to the stable homotopy groups at a prime p > 3, when r ≤ 2p − 2 and r ≤ 2p if t > 1. In this paper, we expand the con...
