For which $n$ does there exist a closed manifold of (chromatic) type $n$?

Let $p$ be a prime and $n \in \mathbb N$. Does there exist a closed manifold which is of type $n$ after $p$-localization? When $n= 0$ the answer is yes. When $p = 2$ and $n = 1$ we can take $\mathbb R ...

Does virtual Morava K-theory have an Eilenberg-Moore spectral sequence?

In a recent question, Tim Campion was interested in analyzing the Morava $K$–theory of a space $X$ by dissecting the space into connective and coconnective parts: $$X(m, \infty) \to X \to X[0, m].$$ ...

What is the Balmer spectrum of the p-complete stable homotopy category?

When doing computations with spectra, we first reduce to working at a prime p by using the arithmetic fracture theorem: (the homotopy groups of) a spectrum of finite type can be recovered from its ...

If $\pi_\ast A$ is graded-commutative, then is $A_\ast$ a lax monoidal functor?

Let $A$ be a homotopy ring spectrum. Then the homology theory $A_\ast : Spectra \to GrAb$ lifts to a homology theory valued in $GrMod(\pi_\ast A)$. If $A$ is homotopy commutative, then this functor $...

Localization at the Johnson-Wilson spectrum and rationalization

Is there a clean proof that the $L_n$, localization at $E(n)$, is simply rationalization (i.e. $L_0$) on Eilenberg-MacLane spectra? Eric Peterson asked this here, but I haven't seen an answer.
