Relation between Chow groups and K theory
I am reading about Chow groups and algebraic K-theory of schemes. I get to know that for smooth schemes the re is a strongly convergent spectral sequence
$$E_2^{p,q} = CH^{-q}(X,-p-q) \implies K_{-p-q}...

How to compute the $G$-theory groups of $k[x,y]/(xy)$ for any field $k$
I am trying to compute the $G$-theory groups of the ring $k[x,y]/(xy)$ for any field $k$. What I have tried so far are two approaches.
Approach 1: Use the $G$-theory localization sequence for $k[x,y]/(...

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 ...

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} \...

Kuenneth short exact sequence for K-homology
Atiyah proved a Kuenneth short exact sequence for K-theory. I need one for K-homology, but can not find any reference in the literature. Do you know one?
Using general spectra stuff, one gets a ...

Twisted spin cobordism v.s. KO theory in low dimensions
Based on the background info and this this webpage, here is a more advanced problem:
Question: If we consider a different more subtle twisted structure, like
$${\Omega_d^{(\mathrm{spin} \times G)/N}},...

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 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 $[...

Is there a spectral sequence of Atiyah's topological KR-theory that can be used to compute basic examples?
For Segal's complex $G$-equivariant $K$-theory, it is well-known that there is an Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence. If say $G$ a finite group and $X$ a finite CW-complex, the second page of this ...

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 ...

For which exact couples do associated spectral sequences degenerate at $E_1$?
It is well known that a bigraded exact couple of objects of an abelian category yields a spectral sequence (cf. https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/exact+couple#SpectralSequencesFromExactCouples). My ...

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 \...

Spectral sequences coming from filtrations (Postnikov systems) in triangulated categories: references and convergence
Let $c^i: M^{\ge i+1}\to M^{\ge i}$ for $i\in \mathbb{Z}$ be an sequence of morphisms in a triangulated category $C$ and assume that $M^{\ge i}$ are equipped with compatible morphisms into an object $...

Mayer Vietoris Spectral sequence for topological K theory
In Sheaf theory one can obtain the Mayer Vietoris spectral sequence for cohomology. For $\mathcal{U}$ an open cover of $X$ we get the convergence
$E_2^{pq} = \check H^p(\mathcal{U},H^q(-,F)) \...

Can I bound the degree of a contracting homotopy in an exact filtered complex?
Suppose that I have given you a bigraded vector space $V = \bigoplus_{i,j} V_{i,j}$. The first grading is a "homological" $\mathbb Z$-grading, and the second is an independent $\mathbb Z$-grading. ...

On two spectral sequences for the cohomology of a double complex
For a (bounded) double complex (of abelian groups or vector spaces) one can consider two spectral sequences that converge to the cohomology of the totalization: one can first compute either the ...

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.

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} ...

Why are spectral sequences so ubiquitous?
I sort of understand the definition of a spectral sequence and am aware that it is an indispensable tool in modern algebraic geometry and topology. But why is this the case, and what can one do with ...
