Solving polynomial equations in spectra?
Let $M$ be the mod-$p$ Moore spectrum where $p \geq 3$ is a (power of) a prime. Then $M$ satisfies the "polynomial equation" $M \wedge M \cong M \oplus \Sigma M$. Is this a general ...

K-theory of the h-cobordism category
I was reading through Kervaire and Milnor's "Groups of Homotopy Spheres", in which the authors begin to compute the groups $\Theta_n$ of h-cobordism classes of homotopy $n$-spheres (with group ...

Detection of stable homotopy by K-theory spectra
This is primarily a reference request. Does anyone know of any writing about algebraic K-theory spectra picking up elements in the stable homotopy groups of spheres in their Hurewicz image coming from ...

Ring structures on algebraic K-theory spectrum, and its non-connective counterpart
I have a few naive questions on the algebraic K-theory spectrum construction, but whose answers I couldn't figure out using the internet. I'm mostly interested in the case of a commutative ring, but I ...

Topological Hochschild homology using equivariant orthogonal spectra
In the Hesselholt-Madsen paper "On the K-theory of finite algebras over Witt vectors of perfect fields", the authors develop some results concerning the Topological Hochschild homology (THH) of ...

Analytic refinement of generalized cohomology theories
Recently, U.Bunke and others developed in a number of papers (such as this, this or this) an approach to smooth extensions of cohomology theories based on stable homotopy theory. In this approach a ...

How to to understand the homology groups $H_*(\Omega_0^\infty S^\infty)$?
The original statement of the Barratt--Priddy theorem says there is an isomorphism of homology groups
$$H_*(\Sigma_\infty)\cong H_*(\Omega_0^\infty S^\infty),$$
where $\Omega_0^\infty S^\infty$ is the ...
