On the spectrum bo ∧ tmf
نویسنده
چکیده
M. Mahowald, in his work on bo-resolutions, constructed a bomodule splitting of the spectrum bo ∧ bo into a wedge of summands related to integral Brown-Gitler spectra. In this paper, a similar splitting of bo ∧ tmf is constructed. This splitting is then used to understand the bo∗-algebra structure of bo∗tmf and allows for a description of bo∗tmf.

Computations involving the so-called root invariant prompted Mahowald and Shick to develop the slogan: “the root invariant of vn-periodic homotopy is vn-torsion.” While neither a proof, nor a precise statement, of this slogan appears in the literature numerous authors have offered computational evidence lending further credence toward its truth. The root invariant is closely related to Mahowald...
متن کاملTHE HOMOTOPY GROUPS OF tmf AND OF ITS LOCALIZATIONS
(1) π∗(S) −→ π∗(tmf ) −→ MF∗ that we now describe. Both maps are surprisingly close to being isomorphisms (even though π∗(S) and MF∗ have nothing to do with each other). The first map (1) is the Hurewitz homomorphism: being a ring spectrum, tmf admits a unit map from the sphere spectrum S. This induces a map in homotopy π∗(S) → π∗(tmf ), which is an isomorphism on π0. The only torsion in π∗(tmf...
متن کاملConnective Versions of Tmf ( 3 ) Donald
We study three connective versions of the spectrum for topological modular forms of level 3. All three were described briefly by Mahowald and Rezk in [8], but we add much detail to their discussion. Letting tmf(3) denote our connective model which is a ring spectrum, we compute tmf(3)∗(RP∞).

The first Pontryagin class of the universal vector bundle over BSpin being twice the generator of H(BSpin) = Z, that generator is usually called p1 2 . The space BString is the fiber of the map p1 2 : BSpin → K(Z, 4). It was previously called BO〈8〉; its current optimistic name is due to connections with string theory. The group π2n(MO〈8〉) is the bordism group of string manifolds of dimension 2n...
