Adams blue book lemma 17.14: computing a $\mathbb{F}_2$ basis for a filtration of $H\mathbb{Z}_*(bu \wedge bu)$
First off let me apologize for not being able to give all the context for this question. I'm learning how to do computations in stable homotopy theory and have been particularly spending a lot of time ...

Torsion in the Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence of a classifying space
Let $G$ be a compact, connected Lie group. There is an Atiyah–Hirzebruch spectral sequence
$$H^*(BG;K^*) \implies K^*(BG)$$
connecting $H^*BG$, which generally contains torsion, with $K^*BG \cong \...

Convergence of a spectral sequence of a double complex
In Weibel's book, a spectral sequence $E^r_{p,q}$ is said to weakly converge to a graded object $H_{\ast}$ if for every $n$ there exists a filtration $\dots \subset F_{r}H_{n} \subset F_{r-1}H_{\ast} \...

Spin cobordism v.s. KO theory in low or in any dimensions
It seems that from this webpage, the spin cobordism is equivalent to KO theory in low dimension.
If we denote the $p$-torsion part (mean $\mathbb{Z}_{p^n}$ for some $n$) $$\Omega_d(BG)_p.$$

spectral sequence for a complex with two filtrations
Suppose $(C,d)$ is a chain complex: an abelian group with a map $d:C \to C$ such that $d^2 = 0$ (people like to assume $C$ is graded; if that helps - feel free to do so). A filtration is an ascending ...

Spectral Sequence for Twisted K-theory
Atiyah and Segal wrote in their Twisted K-theory that one can compute twisted K-theory using a spectral sequence similar to an Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence. They claimed that for any twisting $[...

Torsion in K-theory versus torsion in cohomology
Inspired by this question, I wonder if anyone can provide an example of a finite CW complex X for which the order of the torsion subgroup of $H^{even} (X; \mathbb{Z}) = \bigoplus_{k=0}^\infty H^{2k} ...

Spectral sequence for H-space bundles
Let $F \rightarrow E \rightarrow B$ be a fibre bundle such that $B$ is a smooth and compact manifold and $F$ obtains an associative H-space structure. Explicitly, it is not a principal bundle.
One ...
