Jul 1, 2012 at 5:40 comment added Tyler Lawson @Akhil: The truncation is a right adjoint, but only if the target is a different category (connective spectra). In that category, the homotopy fixed point object of $ku$ is indeed $ko$.

Jul 1, 2012 at 2:36 comment added Akhil Mathew I thought that taking homotopy fixed points would commute with truncation $\tau_{\geq 0}$ (which is a right adjoint, right?). Is there something that goes wrong here?

Jun 30, 2012 at 20:17 comment added André Henriques I think that, while $KU^{\mathbb Z/2}=KO$, it is NOT true that $ku^{\mathbb Z/2}=ko$. If you run the homotopy fixed point spectral sequence, it's ptretty obvious that you don't get $\pi_*(ko)$ from $H^*(\mathbb Z/2;\pi_*(ku))$.
