Mar 21, 2023 at 10:27 comment added Tom Goodwillie I do not think that your proposed splitting map can be a homomorphism, because there cannot be a natural splitting. If there were, then the map $A\hat{\otimes }A\to A\wedge A$ in Fernando Muro's answer would have a natural right inverse $s$ that is a homomorphism. But by universal example one can work out what the natural maps $t:A\hat A\to A\hat{\otimes }A$ are, and none of them does the job.

Mar 19, 2023 at 20:18 comment added Achim Krause @ChrisSchommer-Pries, I presume your $\wedge$ is a $\vee$. Unfortunately, the suspension of $h$ splits, using the James splitting and the observation that the Hopf invariant of $\eta$ is $1$. So the suspension spectrum of the cofiber of $S^2\to \Omega S^2\vee S^2$ just splits into a bunch of spheres.
Mar 19, 2023 at 18:18 comment added Chris Schommer-Pries @AchimKrause what happens if you attach a 3-cell to $\Omega S^2 \wedge S^2$ by $(h, 2)$ where "h" is the adjoint of the hopf map. This is an unstable analog of what you suggest. Does it split in this case?

Mar 19, 2023 at 14:37 comment added Leo @AchimKrause Thanks! Indeed, if my argument in the updated version of my question is correct, it doesn't work for spectrum $X$.

Mar 18, 2023 at 19:00 comment added Achim Krause Here's a small observation: For a $1$-connective spectrum, the corresponding sequence does not necessarily split, as can be seen by attaching a $3$-cell to $\mathbb{S}^1\oplus \mathbb{S}^2$ along $(\eta,2)$. So if this holds for spaces, it is an unstable phenomenon, so the Adams spectral sequence is probably not helpful (on its own).
Mar 18, 2023 at 18:15 comment added Leo @მამუკა ჯიბლაძე Hello! I decided to remove the same question on math.stackexchange, so let me address your question here. Differentials of the type $H_2(X,\pi^s_i)\to H_0(X,\pi^s_{i+1})$ are trivial due to the canonical splitting $\mathbb{S}_{\bullet}(X)=\pi^s_{\bullet}\oplus\pi^s_{\bullet}(X)$. The other differential $H_3(X,\pi^s_0)\to H_1(X,\pi^s_1)$ is the composition of the mod-2 reduction and the dual of $\mathrm{Sq}^2$, which is trivial due to the dimensional reason.
Mar 18, 2023 at 18:00 comment added Leo @JohnPalmieri Thank you for the suggestion. Let me stick to mathoverflow and remove that question.
Mar 18, 2023 at 16:57 comment added John Palmieri I think it's better to post a question to just one of mathoverflow and math.stackexchange, not to both at the same time: math.stackexchange.com/questions/4661599/….
